- Including Alaska (we're a odd group).. I know it would be nice if people would
- rather send where to find info versus total files.. After all some people on
- the USENET have complained about to large of feeds. not everyone on this NET
- are education sites.. Some are BBSes and other private organizations. Im at a
- University, but I call in at 1200 baud, and to capture total files verus going
- to FTP is very different in speed. Capture is slow, FTP is faster. Afte rI FTP
- i can then download when I Want to..
