forum

n. [Usenet, GEnie, CI$; pl. `fora' or `forums'] Any discussion group accessible through a dial-in BBS, a mailing list, or a newsgroup (see the network). A forum functions much like a bulletin board; users submit postings for all to read and discussion ensues. Contrast real-time chat via talk mode or point-to-point personal email.

I thought it was a Canadian playing golf... no wait, that's foray.

I just got that! Way to funny! :)

Took me a while, but I got it.

You know what they say... He who laughs last -- just got the joke. :-)

That is NOT the official Texas dictionary.

My electrical contractor association gave me a pdf of the 2005 electrical code. I can post it on ABPW, or e-mail it to someone that can host it. It is almost 5 megs. My e-mail is bogus on this account.. If there is an interest let me know, but I think it might be to big to post to the binary gorup.

Well shoot. I ardy sent you an explanation. ;~)

I'd be interested. I don't use Forte, but I'm guessing that it will automagically break a 5MB post into a number of appropriately-sized posts if you were to post it to a.b.p.w.

Isn't that copyrighted material by the NFPA? They don't generally just give it away.

Yanks on the fishpole, reels in firmly, grabs, and tosses into the creel.

"That's one!"

I can assure you, you are not. Your company bought a license for a certain number of copies. NFPA is almost as protective as Disney of their intellectual property. Worse than Gates.

Since there has only been one request to post and a strong question as to if its proper I won't be posting which should save a lot of band width. Mike M

Heh, I don't think there's any question about it. :)

Although, if, as someone said, they only needed page so-and-so, it'd be "fair use" to copy that one page to a .pdf file to send or post.

To be "fairer", you might want to underline the relevant passage first, put an exclamation point by it, and perhaps a note linking it tothe question.

I'd be interested in a copy by email if you can.
