OK - it's a bad move, at least for those of us connecting via dialup
lines, paying for connect time, and otherwise tying up the system to
receive overlong files that we don't need.  Please either post this to a
sources group or mail them to the appropriate archives for downloading
by interested sites.

If you do post one to two meg of support files, I will consider that you
owe me a case of beer to cover my costs :-)
