Why would you need as many as 100 people?

Okay, so what do you actually want?

Are you happy enough with the status quo where people sell on the only existing copies of Electronotes?

Do you want more people to read it?  Do you want it gone forever?  What exactly are you shooting for here?

Given that it seems to be one of the most jealously hoarded collections of documentation going, and I've never even seen what's in it, why would I bother to fork out hard cash for a tatty old second- or third- or fourth-hand copy?

Seriously, do you want help or not?
