I think I am fine for now. People have graciously offered to give me
disks, which I didn't expect! : )
Well, if it was important, I wouldn't back it up on NOS 8" floppies,
unless the manufacturing date was sometime in the last 10 years.
This is where you have to ask yourself if the format of the data is
more important than the data itself.
