    Hello!

    I just discovered this place:

    "There is an OldUse.net service that has articles posted with a 20 or 25
    or 30 year latency."

    It is a CLI junkie's dream. LOL

    Oh good grief. I wish you'd not told me. Now I will be out there reading
    some of my old posts in the sportsing and railroading newsgroups from c1994.

    If you see it coming up behind you, you're in trouble. <g,d,r>

    Sometimes it has the ability to sneak up on me without my knowing.
