             to upload is not already online.  Be sure to upload files 
             into the correct file area, and make sure you leave a good
             description of the file.  If you batch upload and can't
             stay awake long enough to enter the file descriptions after
             the transfer has been completed, make sure you first leave
             [S]ysop Feedback with complete file descriptions.  Don't

             without the sysop's permission.
