So, BWB (and everyone else) please refrain from posting binaries here. You
could put it on alt.binaries.pictures.aviation and just let us know you
posted it. Or you could put it on a web page.

Have a nice day.



Yeah, ya gota good point. I don't do it often. Don't want to screw
up the ng any more than the morons have already screwed it up with
lack of content.

A bit off topic, but I think it's time the usenet joined the 21st
century and started allowing binaries as a matter of course. There's a
huge move to web-based newsgroups due to their ability to have lots of
pictures and stuff along with the traditional verbal spew. The problem
with the web-based discussion groups is they are single point of
failure, run by some one person with a possible agenda.

In order to combine the expressiveness of web-based discussion groups
with the anarchy of the usenet, binaries should allowed and condoned.
Ha-rumpphh.
