Got 15 minutes to spare? READ ME!



 
I need to ask a favor of somebody:
 
One of my System 6 disks (Install, to be specific) has mysteriously developed
several I/O errors while sitting in a stack of disks on the computer desk;
it had its write protect ON, and was sitting in the middle of a stack of disks;
almost all of the other disks are fine (except for two others, one of which
won't boot and the other of which is totally ruined.  But that's a different
story).  Of course, I never bothered to get around to making a backup of the
System 6 disks.  (Yes, I'm an idiot, I know it, and I've made backups now.)
 
Anyway, could somebody please pack and binSCII the Install disk, and e-mail
it to me?  My preferred InterNET address is mostanik@heartland.bradley.edu,
although all of my other addresses are set to forward to this one.  Also,
when you send the disk, please make sure that you split it in half and put
each half in its own message; in other words, send it in *TWO* messages.
This account has a time limit on it, and I don't have enough time per session
to download a single message containing even a compressed 800k disk (I've
tried before).
 
I would *very* much appreciate it if somebody could do this for me.  Don't
bother to send e-mail asking about it first; just go ahead and send it (unless
you're reading this message like a week after it was posted; it's currently
12/22/92 15:33 CDT).  I would like to this have as soon as possible, because
I've promised to give a copy of it to someone else (that's how I found the
errors in the first place).
 
Thanks in advance!
