Please stop using .dat attachments instead of posting the URL. The
information is lost in the archive and not necessarily visible to the
recipient before executing the link. Further, some of us are running
on Macs, like me. I don't open attachments other than .jpeg or .png.
If you really want to be courteous, then adding a tinyurl, as various
people have requested, is also nice.
Best regards,
