Well, if you have news you should have uuencode/uudecode, but I definitely
agree. After the first time these results were published there was much
debate and flaming on this subject, with the general consensus seeming
(to me, though I may be mistaken) to be that they should be published in
some sort of conventional text form that'll fit in 80 columns.

Oh well. Maybe next time...
