Archives (was Darcy's appearance)

Here is a summary of the archive discussion in the thread that got off track. ]Guess who spent the down time reading archives! Amy, What are the archives that Anna is talking about.Do you mean you have files of messages?If so could you e-mail them to me.Thanks. IF ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ] ... if you were aware how enormous the archive is. Tell her, Anna. You are welcome to them, of course, IF. It just takes my 14,4 modem a couple hours to send them and I always like make certain people know what they are in for. Usually I send the first 1,000 messages first. Then wait for somebody -- like Anna -- to say, "more chunks, please." Amy ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Irene - amy is right, there are alot of archives - hours of fun. I received them over an ethernet connection at 10mb, so that was no problem for me. I'm terminally tidy, so deleted some of the early zip files after I'd read them, but I kept the later ones (list later if needed). Amy, if Irene does want them I'd be happy to forward the ones you sent me. Anna ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Oh, would you, Anna? That would be great. You guys work it out. Amy ------------------------------------------------------------------------ re the archive files; I'll check which I have when I get to work tommorrow (Mon Eve USA time) and post a list of the ones I have, sizes etc. Then anyone who wants some or all can email me and I will email them back as attachments to a return message. in passing - I'd forgotten which thread this had come up in and had to scroll through them all to find it. Spring has some advantages (especially the 'new' button when one is in a hurry), but when it comes to seeing where all the threads are going, the multi system had alot to offer Anna ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Irene, and anyone else interested in the archives from Amy's board. The files I have are; 15-2m.zip 550 kb 2m-25.zip 764 kb 3m-35.zip 743 kb 35-4m.zip 564 kb 4m-45.zip 830 kb they're all zip files, and run from the start of the board up to about the beginning of November. I'll email a copy of any or all to anyone who wishes. Just send me an email (via thelink above) stating which you want (if you've got a slow link you may prefer them one at a time). I use Eudora for my email, the default code I use for encoding attachments is mime, if your system can't cope with mime I can also do uuencode or binhex, please let me know if you prefer one of these. I use this email address in office hours here; ~ Sunday to Thursday evenings in the USA, so there might be a slight dealy in your receiving a reply. The no.s in the names of the files refer to the number of the message. I started with 1-999, then jumped to 2,500, which is about when the R&V started, and went back later. If you're thoroughly familiar with P&P and P&P2 jumping around causes no confusion. I'm missing 1-999, 1m-1.5 and 2.5-3m, due to some over enthusiastic spring cleaning. Amy has the other files. Amy, if past experience leads you to think there will be several people wanting copies of the archive files, I'd be happy to act as intermediary if you wish. Otherwise they could email you directly for the files I don't have. I'm happy either way. Anna ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Anna, you are an angel. I take back my request for you to host. This can be your job so long as you wish to have it. If you ever start to get tired of having it or resent it or regret you offered, let me know immediately. Please. I am excessively attentive to all these things. Amy 17 new of
