I guess we can probably take this as some kind of flamer. No, we really don't care about the costs of transmission or storage. I myself have an unmetered T1, so it doesn't really matter what I use, when I use it. Also storage isn't a big deal, what is 1284 lines of text amount to? 2KB max for a file. If you dont like how we conduct ourselves on this list, then please unsubscribe, and save us the hassle of writing an email to you as a flamer, and explaining that we "just do it" this way. Other then that, this was just about as productive as the 22 lines of original text that are in some of the mailing messages. Get used to it. On Wed, 2003-01-29 at 14:45, Gary W.
