RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Attached files?

Why not set the Psubs group up on Yahoo as a Yahoogroup with Ray as the
moderator. Go to www.yahoogroups.com to see what they are like. 

The group can be private where not just anyone can join so you don't get
over run by spammers. You can upload any files of any size. You can
store photos and other info. You can have new emails sent directly to
you, sent once a day, and they are stored on their server so you can
check them whenever you want. And it's free.

Just an idea.

Why not save the file on your HD, then capture it as a smaller
non-detailed file that you can post, then post it, and if anyone wants
the detailed version, they ask you for it?  No, not pointing fingers at
you Jon, but using you as an example (don't ya just love life in the
spot light?).  :) Carl
