For what it's worth, I can't believe there are members of this list who
object to getting charts.
But I also agree with Jeffrey Grover about an appropriate way to share these
charts.
I just got my .com web address. I'll have about 20M extra space on it and
would be happy to provide anonymous FTP file upload status to those needing
it. My only requirement will be that I can remove the charts when I find it
necessary and or the charts get old.
I need a few days to get it set up. I'm hoping my new Web Hosting vendor
won't require me to read much documentation to make it happen. <g>
Still trading those tops...<G>
