Cool, glad that's still there.  I added "Thunder Cloud" to the list ages ago (mid-1990's ?).  It was a really crappy shoot-em'up game that I had back in the early 1980's (82 or 83).  IIRC, you controlled a cloud that could move up and down the screen and shoot enemies on the side of the screen.  The general game play was a bit like space invaders turned on the side - but with no barriers, different enemies, etc.  A crappy game, but we are talking about preservation, not preservation of just the best stuff.

Another program that seems to be missing from Apple is "Apple Intercourse".  I tried hard to track this down back in around 2000-01, when I had a working Apple ][c.  Basically, it prints text messages on the screen while making the Apple's disk drive grunt and grind to simulate intercourse.  Very funny back in the day. ;)  I don't have a working Apple ][ at the moment, so I wont be able to hear it in action.  However, if the disk can be tracked down, maybe someone could record the sounds ?  I'll then add the sounds / track list to my "Apple 2 Disk Drive Sound Simulator" (http://moosevalley.solidwebhost.com/mooses_freeware.html#Apple_2_Disk_Drive_Sound_Simulator).
