1) I have disabled anonymous FTP to IRIS1.UCIS.DAL.CA between the hours of
   8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. Atlantic Time.  I was forced to do this because
   we have had over 800 connections since Monday morning.  Our Internet line
   is only 19200 baud, so it caused a major amount of conjestion on the 
   branch of the net that we are in.

2) As I mentioned above the number of accesses to our site is about 800, not
   the 80 the Greg has mentioned in his article.

   Other sites are now making their copies of Greg's images public. This 
   will make access to the images much easier.
