I have pretty much everything posted to the list since about 1997 in a
personal archive (sometimes I scare myself) that I could make available
for such a project. I am in the US, so the UK laws would not apply to
me.
Purely out of morbid curiosity, I'd like to know who it is requesting
the remove so I can find his posts and laugh at what Im sure must be
quite amusing for him to want them removed.
I suppose if just these posts have been temporarily taken offline from
Nigel's archive (and not the entire archives), I could do a comparison
of authors to find out whos missing ... Would probably require too much
work for the benefit tho...
