Can sound be put in these messages?

[Scot LaFaive]

I would just go with hold the files on some site off the mailing list since
that's what most users who have responded request. I don't think it's a big
deal and continually whining about it is getting old. Also, give those
people a break who are on dial-up networks not of their choosing.
