Hi, everyone,

      I'm really glad this subject has come up.  I have 
unsuccessfully tried and tried todownload material from 
www.yousendit.com.  At least now I will learn if this is 
impossible to do with lynx, the cat.

"You are either on the side of the oppressed or on the side of
the oppressor. You can't be neutral."

      Bishop Desmond Tutu

"Washing one's hands of the conflict between the powerful and the
powerless means to side with the powerful, not to be neutral."
                      -Paulo Freire, educator (1921-1997)
