I know it's a long shot, but maybe someone still has their first computer sitting around and within it a more complete copy of the early years of the newsgroup, or maybe an ancient backup of their newsreader. There are many who are interested in the history of this place and would love to have a more complete copy than what google provides.

Darkmoon and I will see if his friend still has his old Atari, and, provided it boots up, will see if we can get the old files off of it.

It's a distant chance, but who knows? Maybe someone else has archives.

I'm hoping to write something with detail at some point.

This wonderful mod was posted here probably.

The basic theme
was on my harddisk
for about 1/2 year,
so I decided to make
something out of it.
I'm afraid things in
this XM didn't go as I
wanted them to...
Anyway, it's the
29th July 1998
ans I promised to
release at least one
song per month, so
It might as well be
this one :-P

Archive.org has a partial copy, but it's also missing some. It's missing different files than google, though.

Perhaps Demonhunter and/or one of His Disciples could help out???
