Hey, I really don't want to clutter the list with an argument on
netiquette. There are plenty of Usenet groups for that stuff. For
future reference: (1) Not all people on the list use PCs and Macs for
accessing their email, and so don't have access to Microsoft
"standard" (heh!) packages. (2) Not everyone is accessing isogeochem
from a "free" connection, whether through work, or at home. (3) In
general, posting binaries to a newsgroup (unless a "binary"
newsgroup) or mailing list is bad practice, in that you create a large
amount of unnecessary traffic.
Let's stop this thread, before it reaches the volume of the original
posting!!
