Description
An online forum for residents of Marmont Falls, run by a volunteer administrator from 1998 until it closed in 2008.
Provenance
Recovered from the last surviving backup after the original server was scrapped. The dye layer had begun to fail at the outer edge; the last sectors came from a second read in a different drive. About 66 percent of the data could be read; the gaps are mapped.
