I could easily feed other folks these pseudo-newsgroups which should reduce the direct-mailing load quite a bit. I feed news to australia directly, so they get the stuff within minutes of the time I get it, im also connected to many major usenet hubc. Basically I see most everything within an hour of a post. This could go a long way to easing the load (not to mention I dont know how the hell you folks deal with getting 15 different mailling lists worth of data piling up in your mailbox, it would make me go mad!) -Crh -- Charles Henrich Michigan State University henrich@crh.cl.msu.edu http://rs560.msu.edu/~henrich/
