	Thanks for the history. One could probably claim that since the platform is 
no longer supported and that efforts to contact the rightful owner have 
failed, so long as we don't get "stupid" about it, we should be able to 
archive the docs...I hope. I'd hate to lose this important piece of 
information (although I will hold onto it and provide pages to members upon 
request).

	What a pain this copyright law is!

	Jim, re: the Hero 1000/2000 robots, where can I find Mobile Ed. Productions??
