[PnP] THE TOWER OF THE DEAD BOOKMARKED PDF FINALLY HERE!

[J Hooten]

http://www.mediafire.com works quite easily and handles large files for free
no membership is required unless the poster what to organize his posts
There are many sites that will host files for at least a short time for free
I try hard not to sign up more places, I already get way too much spam 
(like 500 a day?)

More permanent hosting is best done by people here like me, I can put 
files on my server since I have gigs of space and hundreds of gigs bandwidth

I downloaded the 103,619,846 byte sized PDF with a number for a name, it 
works fine and is a pretty good scan
With the right software it could be shrunk down, OCRed and bookmarked
But you appear to have done some of that in later versions

I guess I will have to sign up to get the others
Thanks for posting them
