Not everyone has access to FTP.  Amazing as it may seem, not everyone
agrees that the jargon file is a waste.  Even more amazing, we're not
going to drop everything on your say-so.

Put me down as a supporter of the jargon file.  Eric, keep up the
good work and don't let this sort of thing get you down.

>You just happen to be the most blatant example of waste.

You're new to these groups aren't you?

Later,
Brian
