Thank you all for doing this. As long as his words are read, his mind lives on. 

With regard to what to do with the scanned copies and how best to preserve them, I feel it'd be best if the pre-OCRed/pre-ANSIfied scans are themselves what is preserved, regardless of whether they get OCRed/ANSIfied/etc or not. In other words, Julian's original work completely uninterpreted and merely photographed (ie, scanned). Anything further to that is a secondary concern. 

Thank you all for doing this. I was deeply troubled at the prospect of his work being lost. We live at a time of transition, many Forth elders are passing away, and many people are throwing away physical books.
