    Subject:  Added to the Digest's Copy Folder

    Folks;

       I was reminded in the last week or so I haven't added anything to the
    Digest's shared Copy folder in a while, so new to the "Radio on TV" folder is
    an episode of Richard Diamond Private Detective starring David Janssen and
    sponsored by Maxwell House coffee. This episode, "Picture of Fear," was
    originally broadcast July 29, 1957 on CBS (the show later moved to NBC). This
    joins all the other stuff I've shared in there; Orsen Welles and War of the
    Worlds material, other OTR and television programs, etc.

       If you don't know how to access the Digest's Copy folder, drop me a
    [removed]'s free, and pretty darned useful. It's basically a better Dropbox
    system.

       This does bring me to something else regarding Copy, though; Barracuda
    Networks, the company that provides Copy, is no longer giving the Digest
    folder additional space (don't worry, there's plenty of space there already I
    need to fill). This means if you use the Digest's referral link, _you_ will
    get an additional 5 Gigabytes of space, but the Digest _will [removed] So I
    suggest anyone who already has and uses Copy, who hasn't maxed-out their
    space, and who would like additional, send me your referral link. I'll
    randomally stick the links into info requests I receive; that way, if the
    recipient does sign up, both you and s/he will receive the additional 5G
    storage space. No sense wasting the referral, you know?

       And if none of this makes a lick o'sense to you, feel free to send me
    private email and I'll answer whatever questions you might have. It's easy,
    and it's free.

             Charlie
