Indeed.  The original "barbershop MIME" message was just a pointer to
a sound file available for anonymous FTP, and it took up a lot less
room.  

Mark, if you're going to post useful MIME stuff, send out pointers
to where you can get MIME code (in MIME format, naturally).  I'd like
to see it as a standard for making announcements of where to FTP stuff,
& in fact I'll be starting to post some of those once the RFC is issued
to comp.archives.
