Neither the data nor the code remained by the time the message was  
posted. The files need to be named with a .txt extension or they will  
be scrubbed by the server. This is (sort of) documented in the General  
Instructions page: "You can use text/plain as well, or simply paste  
text into your message instead. ". In practice, however, even text/ 
plain formatted messages will be scrubbed if their extensions are .csv  
or .dat.
