That feels kind of steep, maybe examine what's stored there and consider other options (like storing videos, if any, in YouTube and linking to them). Are there many dupes? Have these files been curate

As noted in the warning shared earlier, the account apparently has a 1 gig storage limit - as noted, we are about 80% of our limit, as your calculations also indicated. If the fee is minimal, passing

The emails from the group all have a "Reply to Sender" button at the bottom, to reply directly to a list member, if you want to reach someone off-list. Ken, N2VIP

It's a CD? Does it actually include the card stock to build the model with, or is it an instruction 'booklet'(file) on the CD? Ken

Diesel or Steam? ;^) Maybe a nice trolley, or, more seriously, a recreation of his boxcar with the fat guy on it? Ken
