Bill D -

Thanks for the offer, but it's really a rare occasion that I need something too large to snatch overnight.

The PDF Handbook really is only much use to someone who's writing a program, and I don't do that. It's just a curiosity for me, so low priority, and I've got the not-too-old earlier edition.

Similar for the 51 MB download. That was the "Manual for Courts Martial" that I wanted to look at to see what Herr Bush's markup changes (20 pages) have done to it. I've had it for about a month and I'm still on about page 25 (of 897) trying to do anything with it. I got "demilitarized" about 45 years ago, but he says he can put any citizen up in a military court so I was curious.

I should get a download manager so I can do interrupted/segmented downloads, but it hasn't been enough concern to bother.
