Subj: REPLY TO MSG #4228 (??DISK FILES??)

----
I'm going to jump in on this one, Rick.  So, Drew gave you a disk containing
some graphic and packed files and you can't see the graphics and can't open the
files.  Is that's what's bugging you, Bugsie?  Well, you're not alone.  You and
the rest of the known world--and possibly the unknown world as well but we'll
never know cause the unknown world is not known, as we know it today--are in
the dark on exactly what to do and how to use graphics and packed files.  So,
to this end, we--who is this we person?--offer you the future--only because you
already have a past.  What you need is the all new, never published before, not
even available yet, almost as great as Douglas Adam's book, "Life, The Universe
And Everything" ... it's the ...

"Quintessential Guide to Using Graphics And Packed Files For Fun & Profit."
 
Defined by Random House as, "The most perfect embodiment of something."  This
is a beginners guide.  Nothing is assumed; not even whether you can read.  It
covers subjects like communications (Aka: Intercourse).  "See Jane run.  See
Dick run after Jane.  See Jane.  See Dick.  Jane.  Dick.  Jane Dick,
JaneDickJaneDickJaneDick... ahhhhh..."  And many other graphic subjects.

You'll learn all about graphics in the chapter entitled "Picture this!"  And
for using packed files, the chapter entitled "An open and shut case." reveals
what's in the files and how to get them out and back in again.

Indeed, the parallel subjects of graphics and packed files will never be the
same--never be a mystery--again.  You will find this guide and many other
interesting items on "Port Chicago's Loading Dock."  A commercial venture by
Drew Blanchar and Richard Hanson for your entertainment and profit.  Coming to
fine telephone lines, everywhere you just happen to be.  And always remember,
"Wherever you go, there you are."
