Tom: Not sure where your joke begins and ends, but,

A1: If the license says you can't or the stripped version is no longer
available, that's not an option.

A2: The classic server limited the rate of CGI requests (it took me
nearly a month to download all the A-Files as a result, even though
they are small).  I imagine a similar scheme will be in place with the
wiki.

I think the A&S NIST adaptation (DLMF) is more interesting to pursue.
