From my perspective, your commitment to such a tremendous project is unparalleled – and historic within the public sector. I located my website and its contents without any problems. I have stored all of my information and my worries have subsided – in terms of retrieving and reconstructing that information. I now share with you and your team my eternal gratitude for the location, retrieval and safe storage of my website. Again, I thank you. -Dave Drswoope@hotmail.com Jason:

Geocities provided me with my first website, which served my purposes very well. I would ask of your assistance -- to see if the site has been archived or not (www.geocities.com/drswoope/). I am making preparations to rebuild another site with that information. If it is there, please forward all linked pages and all information to Drswoope@aol.com. Thank you. -Dave Hi Jason:

They do the world no good on a flashdrive: they need to be out there where anyone can look at them. Some will certainly be things you have. On the other hand, I may have a few things your project missed. How do I get them to you? I’ve got some GeoCities sites saved.
