That is weird that any site offering binaries for versions newer than
20.7 seem to be down.  I just tried it myself.  Is this the result of
some organized vi zealots' terrorist campaign?  Maybe RMS doesn't want
to make emacs available to windows users anymore, for ethical reasons? 
Either way, you are in luck Glen, and I proudly respond to you on-list!
I happen to have the file emacs-21.3-fullbin-i386.tar.gz sitting on my
harddrive.  One second please...OK, you can now download it from here:
