It's the Smithsonian.  They don't want 100 boxes of stuff;  I'm
waiting for them to tell me how many boxes they would be able to take.

I need to start cataloging what I've got.  It's going to take
approximately forever, but it's my only hope of finding a home for any
of it.  The Smithsonian, the Internet Archive...  Sounds like I need
to contact the Library of Congress, too.
