Summary: Do we need news articles > 64 Kb?

Isn't notes doing us a service thereby?  I don't know that we
really need articles > 64Kb.  The exceptions, I think, would
be mod.sources and MAYBE net.sources; but since the custom
there is to break up source archives anyway, that shouldn't
be as much of a problem.  (Just leave 1K for header ;-).)
