I already did, at least once, back when it was being uploaded as BSQ files.
Remember, I'm no longer in charge, so if Dan wants to pity the file (or he's
just lazy) then that's his choice.

Ok, that's reasonable enough. I still prefer getting my hands on the original
GIFs though.

I guess so, but make sure you 'r' me a letter so I don't forget. Ever since I
evacuated my account over to ugcs.caltech.edu I've been running with a much
smaller directory (an actual 1 megabyte quota! horrors!!) and generally don't
keep things online to bounce to people any more. I'll have to upload it, which
is lots of fun since I can't get a straight 8-bit connection to these machines
like I could with CCO.
