Dan H, you wrote: "Stuff happens. Things get missed." OK. I was under the impression that you followed the list regularly. So you're saying that you were simply unaware that attachments had become (relatively) common in the past year and a half. That's perfectly understandable. Meanwhile... I have had this vague memory that I had seen a post from you personally saying that attachments were permitted. Turns out it was something that I had read in the archives rather than in a more recent message. Here it is: Dan H wrote (THREE years ago, 7-1-2002) in reply to a suggestion that attachments should be prohibited: "Access to the subscription list is limited to the list owner and posting is restricted to subscribers. The attachments are permitted because of the nature of the discussions on Navigation-L. " That's ancient history now apparently, but it was a very reasonable policy at the time. -FER 42.0N 87.7W, or 41.4N 72.1W. www.HistoricalAtlas.com/lunars
