Well, scripting for this kind of "availability" becomes entertaining,
particularly when you look at the source of what you're getting.

It's pretty ugly, wading through all of the
<FONT SIZE="2" FACE="MS Sans Serif"></FONT><FONT SIZE="2" FACE=
stuff that the lawyers think we need to look at, but when you get
down to the line with the '<a href="ftp://' then the fun starts.

Don't laugh out loud, or you'll have to explain the password to
your cell-mates, not all of whom might catch the humour.

enjoy;->
