Just a note from me about hard drives being down to about:
$10 per Gigabyte = $.01 per Megabyte
There are several in the 20-30G range for about $200-$300.
My first 5G drive cost $3,000 new. . .I still have it. . .

Feb 2001 Susy, A Story of the Plains, by Bret Harte[BH #18][ susyxxx.xxx]2495
[This was listed as BH #16 previously, changed to BH #18:]
You should save this file for future reference.
Project Gutenberg has three mailing lists. Here is information
about how to subscribe, unsubscribe, get your list configuration
settings, and retrieve back issues.
In January 2000, UNC (who hosts our mailing lists) changed from
Listprocessor to Lyris software for managing mailing lists. Lyris has
similar capabilities, but also offers a convenient Web interface.
However, we recommend using email for subscribing and unsubscribing.
The lists:
"gutnberg" = General Public Announcements, including the monthly newsletter
"gutvol-l" = General Private Announcements for active volunteers
"gutvol-d" = Discussion among active volunteers
To subscribe:
To SUBSCRIBE to any of the Project Gutenberg mailing lists, send an
email message to "lyris@lyris.unc.edu"
The subject line of the message will be ignored. The body of the
message should contain the text:
subscribe gutnberg Your True Name
and/or
subscribe gutvol-l Your True Name
and/or
subscribe gutvol-d Your True Name
So, if your name were Dudley P. Duck, your message might contain:
subscribe gutnberg Dudley P. Duck
You do not need to include your email address, because Lyris gets it
from the header of your email message.
Beware that the address must be "lyris@lyris.unc.edu" You can't
address your message to an address such as "listserv" or
"listprocessor" or "majordom" (for backward compatibility,
"listproc@lyris.unc.edu" still works).
To Unsubscribe:
If you are trying to unsubscribe, please be aware that MANY different
mailing lists relay the Newsletters from Project Gutenberg and Ask
Dr. Internet, and that it is quite likely you do not receive our
newsletters directly from us. In any case of that nature, you would
have to deal with the mailing in question, presuming you still wanted
to unsubscribe in that case. If you look through the email header
information, you should be able to tell how you got it.
But if you are on OUR lists, unsubscribing is easy.
Send email to "lyris@lyris.unc.edu" with the text:
unsubscribe gutnberg
or unsubscribe gutvol-l
or unsubscribe gutvol-d
***
Archives and personal settings:
The Lyris Web interface has an easy way to browse past mailing list
contents, and change some personal settings. Visit
http://lyris.unc.edu and select one of the Project Gutenberg lists.
***
Trouble?
If you are having trouble subscribing, unsubscribing or with anything
else related to the mailing lists, please email
"owner-gutenberg@lyris.unc.edu"
to contact the lists' (human) administrator.
Thanks!
So nice to hear from you!!
