Funny thing:

Amateur "control freaks" damn near reduced radio to where no one is left on
the HF bands though there imposing ridiculous tests and rules... now they are
right there at the door of the internet attempting to reproduce this miracle
of destruction...

... get a clue, we were fine here before cheap computers, the
un-washed-masses and amateurs!

Yes, well, we are not asking that you give us a set of rules to live under
either...

What are you claiming as evidence for this claim, in your own words,

It is against Usenet convention to post binary files to non-binary

convention not some sort of rule if there is a reason I see no reason
not to post a binary here on occasion just not a whole seris of them
after all it can hardly be more wasted bandwidth than we see here daily


groups. That is why binary groups were invented. Binary files are
usually very large should not be posted to regular news groups as these
groups are archived forever. The binary groups are purged ever so often,
so it isn't prudent to archive large binary files in regular newsgroups.
