How's everybody coming along? I pitched a boxful of floppies today from a time period gone by; as Iindicated above I know I have hardcopy for anything really interresting/useful from that time. I saved a few whose labels still reminded me of anything I might want in text form; I pitched anything whose label didn't even ring a bell as well as time-sensitive itms that are now obsolete. And now that Mudcat Big Crash is mostly fixed, I pitched some thread/PM backups.
LOL-- I guess another layer of When to Discard is when neither the media label nor the hardcopy box label ring a bell! :~) By the time my mind is gone, therefore, it should all be gone and not trouble my heirs at cleanup time!
That is, if someone reminds me to look through and purge stuff!
