References to the Smithsonion Archiving project should be to "Save Our Sounds." Steve Parkes put a link to the SOS in the opening post of the "Sound Archives Decaying" thread that's in the "relateds" list at the top of this thread.

The SOS pages give a nice "we're gonna do" brag summary, but don't reveal much about what they've actually accomplished, or how. I'm pretty sure that they've been at it for a while; and we occasionally see "pick lists" that say who they're doing next; but I can't find anything that says who they've done already, or how.
