Hmm, I guess *I'm* the one who has trouble reading (or remembering).

Fortunately, my FTP firewall machine now seems to be able to
connect to these sites.

On a related point, I've tried downloading some items from the WWW,
but when I get them onto my GS, ShrinkIt says they're not recognized
archives.  (They're .SHKs and .BSQs.)  What's the secret?  I use
Netscape 2 on a UNIX box.  (Then I Zmodem the files to my GS.)

Thanks,
