While I agree with the suggestions listed below and that looking at data
can be an extremely useful tool, the whole group may not be able to see
your data or even be interested in it. Let's keep it simple and just
include something like "attachments of data available upon request" at the
end of the message. Then those interested can pursue it, and the rest of
us can move on. Thanks.
