I submitted the Canon to the MoM to be preserved for eternity, so if something like a Technocalypse occurs in the enar future, OA will be remembered.

Imagine if, in OA, we found something like that in-universe, maybe Thyresta's time capsule carrying their worldbuilding project on New Montana. Wouldn't it be interesting and perhaps rather disturbing for us in the real world?
Can't read Thyresta language.

Cool! Thank you!
I've only just had time to skim the website, but it looks like a cool and worthwhile idea on the face of it. I'm wondering if we could/should add a link to this site to our Links and Resources pages. Not sure exactly how it would fit in other than being a worthwhile cause with some SF feel to it, but maybe we could either fit it in under our news links or create a 'Misc.' or 'Cool ideas' category or the like.
Thoughts?

Thanks- that is a great idea. I hope that a significant part of the Internet Archive survives into the deep future, so that a lot more will be known about our generation than any previous generation. Quite a lot of this information will be a bit embarrassing, perhaps.

Great idea. I have read the web and is interesting.
The salt mine thing reminds me the part of the book Last and First Men between the first and the second humanity.

I just submitted my three articles.
I would like the various contributors to submit their own. If not, would it be OK if I submitted them?

I assumed it was alright, so I submitted the Technocalypse article. What other articles would be good?
