I added up 32KB I've posted in Sept, in which case I'd be in first place. But according to the post, I posted only 8.5KB at 7th place. (You might be thinking of the above as tongue-in-cheek, but it's not!) A quick scan of the bandwidth waster list shows ALL the writers in comp.arch. Which would lead one to conclude that the title "wasters" is tongue-in-cheek. You folks that thought otherwise, think before you post!
