Funny thing with links to files and not to web pages is that people feel
like they have missed a 'hit' on their webcounter. Now seeing as
probably 30% of mine are me, its irrelevant, but somehow I feel attached
to it when I shouldnt. I almost wish sony hadnt given us web counters,
as Im too weak willed not to use mine! But yeah, give links to the
files. I like James Rutherfords page, but he doesnt give links to the
pages or files so I read about a game i want to find but never get it :(
