Why? We'll they're certainly big. The PDF and PS files have also gone missing from the MASTER_SITE. I haven't had time (defending my thesis in 1 week) to fix the ports, but I think we can safely drop the PS and PDF versions - I've played w/ them all and the HTML version is by far the most useful. Give me a week or so and I'll fix them and can the PDF and PS versions unless there's a big demand not to.
