Those of you who either missed the entire posting, or received
truncated parts, please send me EMAIL. I'll take care of your
requests on an individual basis. PSPICE has expired on this machine,
so I can't send you whichever parts you request until I upload the
thing again to this machine.

If someone out there has it online, and would like to volunteer to
send the parts to those who request them, please send me email.

Thanks.

Please, people, don't do this... The PSPICE demo has wasted enough
bandwith, without pieces parts being sent around individually.  The demo
is available from the maker of PSPICE, guaranteed not to have any
truncated or missing sections!  Why not ask THEM for it?

Three reasons:
(1) By waggling your fingers a bit you can have it delivered to your machine.

(2) It's not so much a demo as a "student" version.

(3) Sending direct to individuals is not the same with respect to Usenet
    bandwidth as posting it. Not everyone has ftp access either, so UUCP
    will have to serve.

Bill is absolutely right.  Furthermore, I have a cron job that searches
my main system's (mcdchg) mail logs for any "large" email that does
not originate or terminate on mcdchg and mails me the log entry for
any such that it finds.  If I find someone abusing our generosity by
passing PSPICE via our site, I will kill the uucp job if it has not
yet been passed along.  Further, I will contact the administrator of
the machine from which the abuse originated.  "Automatic mail routing"
is not a valid excuse for it passing through my site.  There is ABSOLUTELY
NO EXCUSE for emailing PSPICE parts around.  People can apparently get
it from the makers.  If this is undesirable for some reason, then
you can set up DIRECT uucp links that do not affect anyone else's
budget.  My site passes a pretty fair amount of mail around for people.
I even tolerate the occasional large email message.  But, I cringe at
the thought that I may be on the "best" route for multiple copies of
a multi-hundred kilobyte package that I've already paid to pass to
close to a dozen sites I feed news.  I've done my part.  No flames
accepted.  Thank you very much.
