PS I've attached the pdf plot to see of the listserver will allow it
I can increase the allowable size if folks want; 128k seemed like a reasonable starting point, but it's sure not cast in stone. We currently have 89 subscribers on the list, so from a system load perspective I don't want to start blasting 89 copies of a 5MB file, but we can certainly compromise somewhere in the middle if the 128k limit is too small.
Also, for anyone who doesn't have webspace available, I can offer to host large files so group members can download them on demand.

Can one chose as an option on the list's configuration not to download attachments? That might be useful if you go much over 256k or so, since if there are a lot of files being passed around, someone with limited bandwidth might have problems.
Someone kindly sent me a group of files (40MB zipped) related to the HP 5370B using
http://www.yousendit.com
where you can send upto a 1GB file to an individual, or a group of individuals. The file is uploaded on their site and they send a link to the intended receivers of the file with a URL for a download. Useful, but not as an achieve, as the files are deleted after 1 week.
