Databack always removes the attachment-it is a service we pay for and
which does two things. It prevents some malicious invaders, which are
especially fond of PCs,and it also prevents the multitude from sending
each other files, some of which inevitably would be large for someone's
email system. If you remember, we had quite a spate of that at the
beginning of being on databank.

I didn't make clear enough that I was talking about ultra-high IQ types
(180 and over) who early on can render strikingly realistic looking
drawings,
but their apparent "artistic" gift is no more than a reflection of their
ability to learn anatomy, proportions and perspective. As a child I was
zippy
at
this stuff, and I deluded myself for a long time with the thought I was
going to be a Hal Foster or Alex Raymond. But I finally learned that at
my
best I was only a mediocre-to-poor copyist.
