      I'd like to think of Bob Satti as a personal friend, after all we've
met face-to-face numerous times, and  even discussed this very subject. 
I've been a guest in his home.  To be honest, I never outright asked him if
he had archives, much less for copies of them (if they existed).  However,
I was invited by him to join the ZCC conference on a R/O basis shortly
after he became IC, so was able to observe all the antics that went on
there.  Also, I was able to see the differences between ZCC and ZCC-PUBLIC
(and there were many).  As far as system crashes, Bob is a computer
consultant, and I doubt very much has been lost by him over the years, that
is of anything he didn't want to lose.  :)


      Anything else, I'm afraid you (or anyone else) will have to ask Bob
directly.  Whether he will bother to respond or not is entirely up to him.
Sorry, I don't normally keep archives myself.





                       .....Bob
