David, this should work just fine, so long as the people in that group
don't complain. I imagine if you were all set up to download every posting
on some newsgroup you might get a little upset if somebody started posting
a bunch of large messages.

About the mailing list everybody. It is on hold for now. We are not sure
about it's fate. I have started reading and posting to this via an usenet
reader. 

The good news is that we are in the process of getting our own internet
connection here and will soon have a newer and better FTP site, and at
some point a Web server and listserv.

I will post updates on this to this newsgroup, as our internet services
began to mature.
