The FAQ, which all members are asked to read before posting, does explain this.

I am amazed that it got through, but it will mess up the digest for
many readers.

I'll seize this opportunity to repeat my periodic advice to set up an account with Dropbox or a comparable service (e.g. Box). Dropbox gives you a minimum of 2GB of free online storage. More critically, with Dropbox you can set up shared folders or provide links to specific files, as should have been done in this case. This makes it much easier when you want others to help you with your research. It also provides online backup. Every year I seem to have a student whose hard disk crashes or who accidentally deletes a file; those who use Dropbox are saved a lot of grief.

For more information go to https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTI1NjYzODE3OQ?src=global9. Use a .edu address if you have one as I think you get more free storage that way. You can also check to see if your University or employer has already set up a special deal for you.
