Awesome work! Your dedication will surely inspire others to learn old tech and understand how tech evolved. Can local museums help you in this regard? How about Project Gutenberg or even Google?

It helps searching the name of the person who wrote the post: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Scott https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Scott "In January 2009, he formed "Archive Team",[12] a group dedicated to preserving the historical record of websites that close down. " "Jason Scott was hired by the Internet Archive in 2011" Or his about page: http://ascii.textfiles.com/about http://ascii.textfiles.com/about "In 1998 he started a website called TEXTFILES.COM whose original mission was to make available the thousands of BBS textfiles he’d collected in his youth, but which has now expanded greatly in all directions of computer history."

  He works for the Internet Archive, but this isn't an IA project. He's the "face" of Archive Team, but this isn't an AT project (not that AT projects are ever really official). This is just a Jason Scott project, which is why he's asking the whole world for help.
