Well, I can't just send it through the internet, because that would 
alter it! I'd have to send you the floppy in snail mail, but it's the 
only copy I have. What if they damage it? :(
Plus, I doubt you have the 5¼-inch Perpendicular floppy drive, anyway



P.S. I just looked it up, and it looks like there used to be a 5¼-inch 
Perpendicular floppy... (see 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floppy_disk#Disk_formats)
Not too surprising, since perpendicular recording technology is not new, 
but still interesting :)
