Thanks for pointing that out David. I should have checked that my reply did
not also include Jim's illustration, which was actually not an "attachment"
but part of an HTML email. I guess that is why it was not filtered out.

It is rather amusing and a good joke on me. As penance I will re-instate
Jim, but I still think he should put such useful illustrations on his NIST
product page and just link to them. As it is, the essential information is
lost to the Rietveld archive, which doesn't reproduce anything more than
text.

Regards, Alan.
