Dear John,

No, I don't necessarily "fear" attachments, but they are a terrific 
nuisance to those on a dial-up connection, as I am, and annoying to 
those who don't need them, e.g. in this instance those who are not 
involved in the U.S. market for example.  

I was horrified when my connection seemed to be "hanging" and when the 
connection at last closed found that there was a mail of no less than 
839,820 bytes, and which took a helluva time, and added quite a bit to 
my phone bill, to download.  

Please may I suggest that if you had emailed your full response to 
those directly involved and posted a note to EMC-PSTC saying how much 
you valued the article and from where it could be downloaded (or that 
you would mail it on request), this would have been equally helpful 
and saved a lot of bandwidth for everyone else.  

Apologies both to you, as I know you meant well, and to the list 
administrators who may think I am infringing on their prerogative, but 
not everyone on this list is on a broadband connection and I thought 
it right to explain this.  (Actually, I think the list standing 
guidelines deprecate the posting of binaries/attachments.)

Incidentally, I'm sure "Conformity" will be delighted at the free 
publicity, but there can be copright issues in posting articles or 
other third party documents to mailing lists or newsgroups.

Again my apologies for any unintemded offense.

With best wishes

Bill
