<B>Thanks for the Kind Words</B>

Many people wrote in after hearing about my hard drive crash. They offered
|
|
some cash, some advice, and a lot of support. I really appreciate that; I
|
|
hear from folks telling me about how much they like the site, but not often
|
|
do I hear from people saying how much they'd miss it if it were gone or
|
|
missing things.
|
|
<P>
|
|
After careful thought, I'm not going to recover the disk anytime soon. It's
|
|
a lot of money, and even though I could run a fund drive and make a lot of
|
|
it, based on the letters, it would be silly money to spend. Maybe I would have
|
|
a fund drive to add a new server to textfiles.com (so I could add searches,
|
|
among other things) but making people pay for the same procedure with the
|
|
same place that firms use to recover accounting data is over the top.
|
|
<P>
|
|
With VERY little exception, everything in that inbox was stored somewhere
|
|
else. I even have a copy of the inbox, one year previous to when I had it.
|
|
I'll use that, and I might miss a few hundred files, but I'm not that
|
|
concerned; everything will show up again, I promise. It took me a while
|
|
to determine that, but I do believe it's the case.
|
|
<P>
|
|
New sections and files are still showing up on textfiles.com, and I've been
|
|
making some major inroads on the
|
|
<A HREF="http://www.bbsdocumentary.com">documentary</A> as well. Life is
|
|
great. Thanks for making it so.
