Plate) Organization: DICOMED Corp., Minneapolis Lines: 21 (-)(-)(-)(-)(-)(-)(-)(-)(-)(-)(-)(-)(-)(-)(-)(-)(-)(-)(-) Awhile back, some people started complained that some of these bigger files being posted were really a drag for some on the network with limited disk space. SO, APPLE2-L was set up. Being on uucp, I have seen no benefit from this list yet, as apparently, the LISTSERV can't send stuff to uucp addresses on request anyway. Well, the way I see it (and this is just my opinion) the messages about how to use LISTSERV and various other flames, questions, etc. concerning the APPLE2-L have probably taken up a good deal of disk space themselves! Maybe I'm the only one that feels this way, but I am tired of reading about LISTSERV and APPLE2-L (especially when I have not had any luck using them). Perhaps this newsgroup really belongs to bitnet and arpa and maybe I should just be quiet, but I liked it when people used to post programs here where I could actually get them instead of hearing about these great programs that I can't get to. No offense intended here, just spouting off. Those of you who love APPLE2-L, please don't bother flaming me, I'll be quiet from now on. Doug Plate
