Hello, Paul.  We were talking about that article on guns - -

Exploder.  I gave it a try and did have _some_ luck with that approach.
Easier for me, though, to do a "SAVE AS" and save it as either a
textfile or as a webpage while online.

The saved textfile ended up needing some cleaning-up, and ended up as
19KB in length.  Kinda long for Fido.  The saved webpage ended up about
90K, but does have the illustrations included.

I could break the 19K textfile up into suitable-sized chunks and post it
here, but haven't seen much interest in the topic here, so will wait
and see if anyone asks for it.
