Howdy all,

Received the following email from the sci.bio hierarchy:

>E-mail is impractical and inappropriate.  Using newsgroups is
also impractical and inappropriate:  impractical because most
Usenet sites refuse all articles larger than a certain size,
inappropriate because large articles, and binaries, are not a
responsible use of Usenet resources.  Doesn't UNLV have its
own gopher or WWW archive yet?  That's where the stuff should
go;  you should arrange for people to send you diskettes or
use anonymous FTP to deposit their files on your archive.  At
the end, you could post a *brief* note to various newsgroups,
announcing the availability of the resource.<

Therefore, I apologize for my attempts to post EN databases here (by the
by, hqx format works, uuencode is flaky).  Therefore, I will once again
ask for suggestions for ftp sites (our sys admins in Lost Vague-Ass are
real persnickety about access) for swapping databases.

On a different tangent,  Is there an FTP site for filters.  Particularly,
PC version of Papyrus.

Sorry for the inconvenience,

David
