I'm reluctant to try posting these for three reasons.  One: they'd
chew up a large amount of the comp.binaries.mac bandwidth [e.g. all of
it for over a week, at the current rate-of-posting] for what is really
a rather frivolous purpose.  Two, my previous postings to
comp.binaries.mac have apparently dropped into a black hole with no
residue; my path to the moderator may be fractured somewhere.  Three,
they are available through other sources.

There are _lots_ of digitized-sound files available on Compu$erve,
GEnie, and Delphi (or so I've read).  Also, they are available for a
modest fee by mail.  According to an article in this month's Computer
Shopper, there is a set of 4 disks (12 sounds each) available from:

	Acme Dot Company
	P.O. Box 5923
	Titusville, Florida  32783

The disks are $10 each when ordered singly, or $29 for the set of all
four.  If you have only a single-sided drive, you can order the sounds
on 400k disks, but it'll cost you an additional $7.50 per 12-sound
set.  Sounds on these disks are mostly of the 22 kHz variety
(compatible with the Sound->snd converter and the Mac II);  some are
sampled at 11 kHz and will need some head-banging to be usable on the
Mac II.  Topics include the Road Runner, Pee Wee Herman, lots of Star
Trek, the Three Stooges, some Star Wars, Max Headroom, a bit of Frank
Zappa, quite a bit of Monty Python, and lots of other little tidbits.

Disclaimer: I haven't bought these disks nor dealt with the Acme Dot
Company, so order at your own risk.
