Is there any way to reach out and get a hold of the files? I guess it will be too late now, but did anyone try?

Glenn, just following up from my PM's. I wonder if your mailbox is broken or full :) Can you send me the DB for johnlsayers.com? I am eager to try setting up a searchable index for people. While some of the images etc may be lost, there is still a tremendous wealth of information from the comments and discussions that is useful to folks.

Let me know.

Thank you for doing this, it certainly would be useful and appreciated.

For missing images, it may be possible to recover some if people have made local computers on their own computers. I might have the picture with Gregwor's silencer box formulae, for example. Or it may also be possible to reach out to some of the original authors who are still present on forums.

Cheers!
Jennifer
