When reading old floppies, how often is it advisable to clean the drive?  I 
managed the first 3.5” floppies no problem, I’m using a USB Floppy Drive hooked 
up to my Mac Laptop, I was able to image them using “Disk Utility”.  The next 
two floppies have had errors.  Though I think I was able to successfully copy 
all the files off the one.

Also, what is floppy drive cleaning fluid made of, and how well does it age?  I 
know I’ve got at least a couple cleaning floppies around here, but they’re 
*OLD*.
