I'll wager that he still has the archive

through about maybe 6-8 months ago.
Hmmm. Did that Bill Whitson work for Purdue at the time? There's a Bill
Whitson who is the manager for ITAP/RCS, who seems like he might have
been somewhat inlined towards classic computing...
Nope, he was at the University of Washington. He just up and disappeared
several years ago. The last postings I remember from him were when
someone broke into his van and stole his stereo and some of his computers
(he kept them in his van).
It may well be the same guy. Ask him. It would be nice to track down
Bill.
Well, I bet it's someone different then. The Bill I know has worked for
Purdue for at least 10 years, probably much longer than that.
