Al, if you can figure out how I can get a dump of the entire file tree 
on the server, I can put it up on the server I use. It is just a matter 
of copying the files over, fiddling the Apache startup files and 
convincing Network Solutions to send me the hammarlund.info hits. It is 
on AWS, and I'm getting quite a good rate. I put in my will that 
somebody should continue to pay the bills until both me and the SP-600 
are forgotton (shouldn't take too long). It might take a bit of fiddling 
to transfer over the hammarlund.info registration to me, but it might 
not be necessary - I can just give you a new IP address.
Thoughts?
