I redacted the personal text files from the archive, as I said it was sent 
to me that way knowing I was posting it on the web.

I agree before letting go of any disks you should look and see what is on 
them.

In this case there are large pieces of the UCSD source code in this archive 
and I am extremely happy to have it on my site.  The personal letters didn't 
have anything embarassing on them but had nothing to do with what I want to 
save.

When I create an archive of files or disk images I try to know what I am 
archiving.  I look at text files with an editor and disk images with a hex 
editor.  I've found lot's of goodies with a hex editor.
