Subject: Library is 754 items and growing

Having added in the latest drops, I figured I'd have a squiz at how much there was.

754 items.
2.62 gigs of data.

I reckon we might hit or pass 760 by the end of the year.

Whoda thunk it would get this big? Not me. And I quietly freaked out a few years ago when the total content half-filled a CDR.

Heh, can you imagine if the Library had a web site? And no, don't ask for one.

(But AusNick, we can haz?)

No. It would be cool, still No. I don't have the time, money, resources or requisite skill set. And I wouldn't burden anyone with it either. I'd rather win the lottery, buy a house, and print everything.

Still, by now it has to be one of the largest archives of pro-smoking and Smoking Fetish material out there. Is it? Does anyone know? Or care to hazard an educated guess?

Looking at the NSC series too, we should hit 2000 stories around volume 147 (July 2025), so I guess I'm putting off my retirement you lucky dogs. I wanna hit that milestone.

And I know I've said this before, but I've been asked if I could expand the library to include video. Mulling that one over, I have no idea how I'd store it, let alone serve it. And then there would be the copyright issues, and I'm already flying close to the sun with my article preservation items.

Going to bed.

Nick
