I can't unzoo it on my UNLV account, because my account is limited to 800K. In other words, I have no place to ftp the file too. Now is my problem understood? In fact, of that 800K, DNET takes up 200K (after I deleted several files). I'm just asking for a little understanding, in that there are people who's only access to UseNet comes from a Student account with severe limitations. And I'm lucky, because all of my transfer credits make me considered a senior. My friends in the same clases I take only get 400K of disk space, because they are juniors. UNLV may have a good CS major, but it doesn't have decent equipment. In fact, until last year, we were still running on a HARRIS (GAG!). Well, I'm rambling now, but I think I've made my point.
