It would seem to me it would be in everyone's best interest to, if nothing 
else, clone the site and store the data, even if a new version of the site 
would have to have up on the page, where people will easily see it, a notice 
that it's for archival and search purposes only.

I know this past week I was doing research and all the links were timing out to 
that page - but that it had information I wasn't finding elsewhere (other than 
the Google cache of the site).
