Re: Archival catacombs and dead records



If you drop an Archivist and nobody is there to here will she/he make a
noise?

Not my turn, either.

But it I posted it, no one would know.  I suspect no one reads my
stuff--when
I cited Plato's cave analogy the list philosopher didn't correct me for
getting the wrong book of _The Republic_.  And I'm likely the only one
willing to go public about being clueless about Cleese (okay, everyone
else
knew who he was), and what good is all the Xenophonian Greek, Bedean
Latin
and Chaucerian English if one's never heard "Happiness is a Warm Gun?"
My
assistant often remarks on the investigative quality inherent in
archival
work, yet I'm clueless in the catacombs of the archival list.  And do we
all
live in archival catacombs, or only the basement archivists, with their
dead
records? (And if one were to place a PC in the catacombs, would it them
have
Windows?)
