Subject: OT: I'd like to say a huge 'Well done' to Neshomeh.

Okay, that seems a little out of the blue... let me explain:
In the course of saying hello to Artemis Mk. 2, I talked about the DIA, and specifically Black and Irvine, written by the original Artemis. Their missions used to be hosted on the Bad Roleplay Department website, which, alas, died with Geocities.
Not that I was going to let that stop me! I prowled the web looking for the various sites which had archived bits of Geocities, sure that at least one of them must have something. And finally, I found that the Oocities site has a unified search engine (in the top right corner) - one which will pull up results from all the salvaged Geocities archives!
Brilliant! I thought. I may not be able to find the BRD, but surely there'll be something of value in there!
(Yes, I am getting to the point)
Well... no. Or rather, yes, there is. Among the saved websites are Hellga's SIELU collection, the JAAKSONS, the missions of Dee and Milask, Suicide and Diocletian... whole heaps of pretty important stuff from the early days of the PPC!
And it's all entirely useless, because Neshomeh has saved every single thing I can find (with the exception of a handful of 'I made this page but never posted any missions or anything' sites) to the Lost Tales. So there's nothing left for me to do!
Seriously. I'm very impressed. Well done, Nesh - and thanks!
