heh.

no, I don't think I want to go generally after all .gov ... I'm trying  
to focus on legal materials and video, with a few diversions like  
irs.  but, list of gun dealers isn't necessarily useful unless you can  
start aggregating this stuff into a bigger package ... happy to mirror  
a bundle of that kind of stuff, but the onesy-twosy is too  
distracting.  I run the laziest kind of mirror ... I'm looking for  
big, infrequent chunks that I don't have to do anything with.  :)
