Just as I perused the site, I noticed the lack of one Vince Cate or our
fiends at offshore. I'm sure this sort of thing would be right up his
alley.

So, Vince, if you're monitoring these lists, what do you think? Let us all
know.

Also, on the far out front, wouldn't it be possible to throw some of the
archives on Usenet as Eternity Srvice documents. Now, I don't want to clog
anyone's newsfeed for six days, but is it worth considering?

And for the totally strange, has anyone thought about claiming a still
unclaimed piece of Luna and sending up a impact-resistent, solar-powered
server with some kind of semi-highspeed link (delayed, obviously, so it'd
probably have to be an asynchronous transfer method) with a bunch of disk
space and all the crypto you can fit? Sure, maybe not now, but in a couple
of years...
