[Coco] "I had a Dream".

[Stephen H. Fischer]

Not the dictator, the use of workers / slaves / or any other term do not suggest that my instructions are to be blindly followed.

If I suggest something bad then it will have been taken out of context, but I do have skills that others may not have, tools and so on.

Send me a PM if you wish to help (and Learn).

I am trying right now how to add a different webpage to the archive.org 's ftp boneyard and am stuck.

If that is successful then Dennis will be contacted as to putting a better mirror of the current MM files into the ftp boneyard.

Waiting for your PM. Please do not include "[CoCo] in the subject, PM sometimes get lost that way.

Thanks for willing to help. Three persons so far. More and a librarians might be needed to handle our e-mails.
