Shea and other Realtraders,

   Unfortunately, there are a few members how incur per minute phone
charges when they connect to the Internet to receive their email,  however,
the moderators of Realtraders DO NOT feel that this forum is being
inundated with too many attached files at this time.  Especially since most
of these attached files are less than 20k in size (Note, RT'ers has a
maximum limit of 65K on any file, so you will never receive an
extraordinary large file from this forum).  Further, for those member who
have to deal with per minute charges, I strongly suggest that you upgrade
your modem to 28.8k or 56k so that you can retrieve your mail faster.
Personally, I have a 28.8k and the downloading of said attached files
usually takes less than 5 SECONDS.  Obviously, this is not a long time
especially when a picture can represent a 1000 words...as the cliche goes.
Therefore, the status quo will remain.

Thank you and sorry,
John Boggio
