Question about scanning (short story project)

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Excellent.  I think so too, especially for the works that are long out of print and generally unavailable.  when (or if, but I fancy when) we get to 1999 then I will perhaps stop and reevaluate, since those stories are at least sometimes still in print.  So the way I would like to handle this is that I will scan a few at a time before discussion, and send them to those who request it.  We will make it an opt in/ opt out, after you request it I will continue to send it to you until you say, no more scans, please. Send requests to be included to my private e-mail, marcaramini at yahoo.com.  I will try to get on this ASAP.

No stories collected in any of the Tor collections will be included or reproduced; you are all on your own for those ones. 

I appreciate everyone's input so far - it will get much more exciting when we reach 1970 and Wolfe suddenly became a super talented, fully developed adult writer of short stories!
