[all previous snipped] 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.
