"Bill is a generous person, though you clearly don't know that. And it sure ain't about money. Go to your local Kinkos or other copy shop with a 54-page document and see what it costs to copy it, before you complain about Bill's $3 charge." This is the 21st century. Who goes to Kinkos and pays their prices when you can scan the handout to a PDF file and distribute it via E-mail for free.
A 54-page PDF file scanned at 100 dpi (marginal quality) and not converted from Word would be about 25 megs....not the thing you can e-mail to people.
