Subject: [CANSLIM] Sending large files to the canslim group
Date: 02 Aug 2000 08:00:00 -0600
Everyone,
There are times when you may wish to share large files with our group (i.e. gif, jpeg, spreadsheets, etc). Our list is configured to reject large postings (even if they are properly encoded) since the sheer volume has caused problems in the past. As an alternative, we have provided an anonymous ftp site. To provide your file to the group, please follow these instructions:
If you need some help doing this step, there are ftp instructions below.
2. Send mail to me directly at "owner-canslim@xmission.com" telling me the name of the file that you uploaded. I will move the file from the incoming directory, to the canslim directory where people will be able to download your file.
3. After I notify you that the file has been moved to the canslim directory, you should send an email to the canslim group describing your file, and its URL (i.e. ftp://ftp.xmission.com/pub/users/m/mcjathan/GreatBoom.gif).
Although this may seem unwieldy at first, it really isn't too bad and it solves more problems than it creates.
You should note that I do not monitor my email on the weekends as closely as during the week. Therefore, steps 2-3 may take longer over a weekend.
2. On the Netscape "File" menu, select "Upload File..." This will open a file selection widget on your hard-drive. Select the file you wish to upload and hit the "Ok" button. At this point, your file will be uploaded.
3. Eventhough your file has been uploaded, you will not be able to see the file in your netscape browser. The reason for this is that the "incoming" directory is set to write-only for security reasons.

Bill Weliky,
Brinker claimed that the way he would do it would be to sell as SOON as it touched 84, REGARDLESS of any bounce or what it closed at. That doesn't necessarily mean that the majority of his followers did or COULD follow
the QQQ that closely since most people work 9-5 jobs and can't immediately pounce. Personally, despite Thursday's higher volume [up] action, I'm looking to cash out soon. If you're really interested in Brinker's exact
words, go to www.bobbrinker.com find Moneytalk archives, and listen to last Sunday's RealPlayer radiobroadcast.
I finally dumped PWER today for a slim 4.8% gain. Although this stock still feels like a leader, the overall Market has been screaming to liquidate for weeks. I still hold a small position in one non-CANSLIM, low P/E
stock [TOPP] that meets Benjamin Graham's long-term value criteria, but that is a long-term gamble I may hold throughout even an extended downturn [not recommended BTW, especially by WON but I don't follow WON's
methodology 100% of the time]. I'm looking forward to not having to follow the M every day, now that I'm mostly cash--see how long that sentiment lasts. Anyway, I'm through rambling...for now.
