More nostalgia history, much of it before my time.

The term "nostalgia" denigrates my half-decade of work.

Jason Scott's right, it is a trivializing term. We sometimes refer to print archives in terms of nostalgia, yes, but there's also a much wider range of references.

As I just said to Kari within the hour, Jason's doing the lord's work with a site like Textfiles.
