These are critical moments in history, when information is preserved or
lost forever. You may have many unique files help nowhere else. Would it
be possible for you to archive the whole thing and make it available for a
small fee, or send a copy to a couple of the people running PD libraries
so they can see what fills gaps in their collection?
Also, maybe it is possible to do a superBBS on the web, combining all the
files of all the BBS out there? This again for archiving purposes...
Just a thought... (all lonely and scared by the isolation, I assure you!)
