[TriLUG] Question for ibiblio people

[Greg Brown]

Yeah!!!! It was around '95 (or so) when everything was lost.. maybe not 3 
gigs worth - but  A LOT!  Anyway, the .au files were all stored in a 
directory which I can't remember the name of (somewhere under /pub) and there 
was... er... the sesame street song (original), the mannix theme, the 
original spiderman theme, lots of TV quotes, the Sanford and Son theme...  
there were so many it's hard to remember just how many there were.  The 
Sanford and Son .au was one of my favorites.  Even on an old Sparc10 the 
sound quality of the .au files I downloaded were AMAZING.  I wish there were 
still there.

....ahh.. the old days. ;)
