The reports are uundecoded and compressed for two reasons:

	1) The lines are too long to pass through many networks
	2) The size is larger than 65K, which is another limit
	   on some portions of the network.

It is a simple matter to 'cut' the file in half and print
the right and left sides independently if you are limited
to 80 columns.  Then tape them together side-by-side and
xerox on the reduction setting.  However, dot matrix and
lasers can easily handle 160 columns.  Surely you know
someone with such a printer.

Later this month, or early in 1989 I'll repost the results
with the 'raw' database as well (as soon as the results
traffic dies down again).  You can format the raw database
as you see fit.  Be warned, however, that the raw database
will be uuencoded.  The line length hits 230 characters
in the database.

I've posted the 'stones results in many formats in the past.
Not once have I been able to avoid flames for one reason
or another (too big, too little, too useless, got truncated,
we don't have a fraggle-izer).  I believe I've solved
the big, little, and truncated problems.  Utility is
Reinhold's department.  And fraggle-izer's are free, get one.

Needless to say, followups are directed to /dev/null.  If
you must continue this discussion, do it by mail.
