When I first joined this list, it contained its own historical
files and I did find them going back as far as 6/92. In fact,
until recently, I kept a copy of all such logs but when
Mark began keeping them on Sneezy, I gave up.

There was a period when the bosses of KLARINET wiped out
all of the earliest records, but that did not bother me at
the time because I had them. Do you mean that they are
NOT on Sneezy's disks somewhere???
