Why not??

Is it just me??

I've seen flames for people simply UUencoding a .c file let alone a
227kb binary file.

I think binary attachments are wrong, AFAIK they upset the following
groups,
1- DJ's mailing list, can it handle binary attachments??

2- People using other computer systems, Amiga, Mac etc,etc. The original
posting went to comp.graphics.algorithms too.

3- People who pay have to per minute/second for phone line connections.
(Like myself. :( )

4- People who have to pay per kb they download, are there any left?? :)

Am I wrong??
