I was mulling that same thing about letters as I wrote the last post, it must have broadcast through the ether. I'm looking at old letters in the computer now thinking "is anyone going to want to see this?" not "will it make a difference in the world?" Also the daughter of a librarian hoarder of information and my own decades of work in the library had me thinking "that could be interesting later." Now I ask "to whom?"
I have fewer filing cabinets (two down from four). And their most important job is to hold up the plank of furniture-grade plywood that serves as the desktop for the old computer and the digital equipment if I ever get around to digitizing my Dad's many cassette tapes. (Those WILL go to a university archive, so it is what I should be doing now.)
We (Mudcatters) donated a couple of computers to Art Thieme over the years and he put them to good use, digitizing all of his song recordings. Bob Nelson (Deckman) also. I need to take a page from that book and do the same and then clear out all of these shelves of stuff that I never even notice any more but that take up a lot of wall space behind me in the office.
