If you had ever looked at the postings you're flaming me about, you'd realize
that I *have* figured out FTP sites. The File is archived at two of them.
One of the things I have figured out is that *many people don't have FTP
access*. Therefore, I have to distribute by mail or news as well.
Since this is a *public* effort, being conducted for *public* benefit and
intended to include the widest possible spectrum of feedback and opinion,
news seems appropriate.
I expect comp.society.folklore will pass and be created shortly. If it
does, I will move any future postings there. You and the rest of the
minority of grouchers can unsubscribe. In fact, I'd consider it a kindness
if you did so.
Exasperated in Malvern...
