I was around then and my memory is that Perry was the main proponent of the idea. I don't think I have any archives; they either got tossed in a cleanup or lost in one of the two major computer disasters I've had since then.

And, yes, as a computing professional I certainly should never get caught like that. Speaking of which, the Disaster Recovery Plan for a Jupiter Brain would be a very interesting document indeed ... we probably covered that to some extent at the time.
