 I never suggested a blind mirror, I just didn't talk to the site operator because a "mirror" to a dialup computer is completely pointless except for archival purposes (I do have Jagubox archived because it's so hard to find now). Perhaps an arrangement could be worked out to mirror it over a period of time or PostOfficeNet DVDs - who knows? There was a time after Wisniewski's death that it wasn't around, and it would be a shame if it went down for good without any mirrors.
