The way in which future generations will be able to access the minutia of history is so unbelievably mind-blowing to me that I can barely fathom its potential, for good and bad mind you.

What a neat find. It is one thing to hear people retell what it was like when they found out but, it is another thing to listen in to the actual events. It is strange how engaging with an artifact from the time period has a different impact and in my opinion, more powerful. You can get a sense of the shock of what it would have been like to go through station after station only to hear a Beatles song and John Lennon singing.
