If anybody is interested in backing up their old posts into a word doc, PM me. Right now I am finishing the backup for Rearden Metal. My asking price is 15cents per post for ET posts. The rate maybe higher for other forums where it is more difficult to locate the posts. I could use some cash right now and I don't mind the work of copy/paste. Meanwhile, you could get your posts saved for your memoirs, to show to your kids, your grandkids, etc.
I can vouch for that 100%... If you want any kind of remote data entry/post archiving work done, this is the guy you want to hire!
