I'm going to get with you privately this week about a place to FTP 'em, if
you can.  I just gotta set it up.  Or, if they're not too big, you could
send 'em to a temporary address I created, a2 [at sign] superbio.co.notrash
(replace .co.notrash with .com).  I'm easy.

I appreciate the help.  My 7200 has never been able to create disks that my
IIgs could read.  I don't recall having luck with the Quadra 700 (but I can
try it), but I've got an 8500 that I can put to the test, too.  Who was it
that said that the Mac was one of the best peripherals you could buy for an
Apple II?
