Are you serious? Jason is currently sweating his balls off trying to save at 
least a portion of a huge warehouse of unique documentation under an incredibly 
tight deadline. Does it really matter *where* the information is stored? IA? 
Bitsavers? What’s stopping someone mirroring what IA grabs and pitting it into 
bitsavers? Do you really think now is the time to whine about archival 
philosophy? Is there anyone involved in bitsavers grabbing stuff from that 
warehouse?
