Not to worry: Many libraries and historical archives are just beginning to scan their holdings into online sites like Flickr. So as individuals (who often have mundane stuff anyways) lose interest, the powerhouse documention will be coming on stream.Love the thread. I have most of the pictures, but that's because I've been going nuts and saving pictures on the original WTC for years now. Only a matter of time before flickr/photobucket/whatever users shut down their accounts, are deleted, etc.
It's nice to have stuff in one location for the users of the board. Good work!
