>>Its too bad I cant get those articles on Free Republic from back then, or I would link them here!
If you have links, stick them in the Wayback Machine:
I have successfully gotten material from FR posts from before the FR database change via this method.
If you don’t have links, you might try Google searching appropriate keywords and years, to see if you can get a pre-database-change link, and then do the above.
I’ll try doing a search, later on this evening ... :-) ... My key words will be “Star Traveler” and “Steven Emerson”.
