I think the Ultrix and FORTRAN tapes have got to be worth saving whatever
happens, and possibly the MicroVMS ones too, even though it appears the
latter may have been overwritten. Sadly I am in the UK and don't have a
proxy in Ottawa, but please don't get rid of those particular media without
giving someone the opportunity to image them.

Rob
