jim i agree with you - i didn't what to look at his reel. so i did not download it. what is your problem i might have had some interest in it & might have downloaded the damn thing. however i don't want you to be the overseer of my mail thank you. the purpose of the lists is to allow people to have an interchange of ideas which is obviously something you don't wish to let happen. thank goodness you are not the listmaster. hank In a message dated 97-03-30 20:05:20 EST, you write: << Subj: Re: REEL Date: 97-03-30 20:05:20 EST From: cobber@mi*.co* (Jim Cobb) To: JimH720113@ao*.co* (Jim), TECHDIVER@aq*.co* (Tech Diver) CC: WRECKDIVER@wreckdiver.com (Wreckdiver List), REBREATHER@nw*.co* Ah, Jim it is considered really, really stupid to send a large enclosed file to a listserver. The reason is that maybe there are people who really don't care what your reel looks like and don't want to have to sit through downloading it. As a matter of fact, some consider it a reason to mailbomb you back to the stone age and to kick you off the list. Let's see. There are about 200 people on these two lists, so the size of your file is 170k, so you basically sent a 34 megabyte mail bomb. If I was the listmaster, I would be really pissed.
