This picture is 5287 lines big according to T-Bird [and X-news]. Any

Thanks gents - that makes it 22 lines per Kb or so.

Looks like either this is some ancient Egyptian system or thought up by

Since news (NNTP) converts everything to ASCII, I believe the 'lines'
refers to the number of lines of text that make up the whole post.
This can vary depending on the line length you have your posting
software set to use, but is usually somewhere in the 72~80 character
range.
