True.  Even though CompuServe bought the Source, which *could* receive in
some kind of bit-mapped format that was downloadable, they haven't implemented
it yet.  I wrote to their staff via their 'Feedback' asking when they would
implement such a feature (now that they had the resources of the Source) and
was politely told that if/when such a feature was implemented, it would be
announced, never fear...
