Leonard: First of all, what a great new word: "litigrate". It would seem that the scraping of E-mails makes history unclear and downright theoretical. (e.g., the present administration in D.C. and Enron files)
About archives: Some time ago I asked Sharon MacQueen about the status and condition of archives. She told some horror stories to which I can relate because of my own research. I also know that several major publishers rid themselves of their archives--lack of space, they claimed--and no archivist. What have you found-- or not found--in the archives--if they exist?
I, too, will send my papers, contracts, correspondence to the Kerlin
(when I manage to get to them).
Thank you for an energetic and fascinating discussion.
