I certainly keep copies of our policy/info files. But I keep them on my pc at home; I don't have enough room for them on the system from which I send mail. So to send one of these to to someone from here involves uploading it through a modem link. GIVE is a *big* help to me. I do most of my work on the lists from here at home, but I also connect from my office. When I do that, I have no access to my files. I suspect that this kind of arrangement is not uncommon amoung list owners. Peace, Dan << Daniel D. Wheeler Internet: [log in to unmask] >> << University of Cincinnati Bitnet: wheeler@ucbeh >>
