and a whole bunch of you responded "Send meeeee one" and "Meeee tooooo!"
Come on! Have the common courtesy to reply directly to Mr. Majors' kind
offer; don't post followups:
1) Then he doesn't have to come here and collect them. It's no more
effort for those who want one to reply directly, and it makes his life
considerably simpler.
2) The rest of us don't have to read your requests. Unless you're
trying to show how much you appreciate this offer and are hoping
that the level of interest will induce others to make similar
offers, it's just a waste of bandwidth.
I think this is a *wonderful* offer on Mr. Majors' part; I requested a
copy as soon as I saw the thread. Let's not discourage others by being
boorish (whether intentional or not).
N.B.: I hope this doesn't sound churlish, but I'm sleepy. No offense
intended to anyone.
