Subj: REPLY TO MSG #6864 (LIBRARY)
Bob: The library get changes from time to time but not like it used too -- certinly not like it did during its set up. Our librarian, Robert Benson, is not as active as he once used to be but he is still around. When Robert was active, he vertually tested each and every program in the library, so what's available is quite good. I am awair of your programming work. You've mailed me several article reprints, etc. -- which I appreciate, of course. We would be happy to host your programs for the gang. It would be nice to have new items. Regarding the message base: What's online now goes from 1991 to the present. Most all subjects have been well hashed over. There used to be even more messages from 1983 through 1990 but during those times I just didn't have the capisity to keep them around, nor did I harbor the year 2000 and beyond. I used to collect each years messaes into a printed copy but it just wasn't worth reprinting due to size and cost -- during those days, even one years worth of message base would not fit on a floppy. Thanks for the questions. Let me know what you want to do about the programming. -Rick-
