Sir: There is a BIG difference to uploading a file to a MICRO-stand-alone-dial- it-up-BBOARD where users can chose what to download and that of sending a mystery encoded somewhat large message file to a Defense Data Network Interest List where it is retransmitted directly to over 3000+ subscribers. This cloggs up the already grossly overloaded Internet traffic as it goes especially when other methods (FTP) are in place to handle the task in a proper fashion to make your work available to even more users that will have the choice of downloading it or not. This is the same Netiquette that is used in all the 300+ Internet Interest Groups. I have been informed by some associates that your mystery file is a UUencoded ARC file that contains COM, DOC and ASM source, and that it appears to be a very nice and useful program. I am sure INFO-HZ100 subscribers will look forward to any program submissions of yours in the future. Cheers, Gern -------
