Well... Here are the main sections of Vault:

- Downloads:
Nearly everything marked with an orange "Exclusive" star. Some of these
files have been copied to Asimov, but most haven't, and these are disks from
my personal collection.

People have also sent in files and PDFs to be added to the Vault collection.
I don't know if they have been added to Vault; I haven't done it.

Probably less than 1,000 files are exclusive to Vault. (I don't have the
exact figure now, but I can check if you're curious)

- Usenet:
Basically Vault is the only source of all binaries, plus there's everything
that Google Groups has, plus a bit more (articles that were nuked, for
example)

- KB:
Most of the text files and PDFs came from other sites, so you're probably
safe there.

- Photos:
Mostly photos of my own collection. As far as I know, they haven't been
copied to any other site

- Mirrors:
I have tens of gigabytes of mirrors of many other sites, but it looks live
Asimov has most of them too.

So if you send a SASE, I will send you back the 3-DVD Vault collection,
which contains all of the above except for the Usenet articles and Mirrors.

And then you will ... finally... have it all. ;-)
