I'm (fairly) sure Alan was mostly kidding, but his is a helluvan idea,
folks! Of course, it would probably take 3 or 4 CD's, but hey, why
not. Let's start some discussion on this, as a serious project. As
Alan pointed out, there's a whole lotta good stuff in the past.

Actually, I think Alan's article was about 105% in jest.

This means that those who study history, news, current affairs, literature
and urban folklore will have a sudden change in their environment.
Information will no longer disappear by accident.
But it will become almost as hard finding the right information in a sea
of noise as it is finding vanished information today.
What really needs attention is the question of organizing the information
we do have so that we can use it.

Let's just hope that no one with Orwellian tendencies
worms their way into the power structure and begins
changing the past.... If we keep our heads on straight
and are aware of such possibilities, this won't happen,
but we must never forget, and always be aware.
