[Rhodes22-list] Permission to come aboard?

Sun Mar 29 14:01:56 EDT 2015

Hi Jefferson,

Putting on my research librarian hat, I was able 
to see your issue by clicking on the links in this post:
http://www.rhodes22.org/pipermail/rhodes22-list/2012-January/070363.html
The old.nabble,com links did not work for me either.

By going to Nabble.com and using the advanced 
serach function to search for the same post in 
the Rhodes-22 archives, I was able to find the 
post within the "Rudder Questions" thread. In 
that thread I was able to find the (I think) 
original message with the 
links  Sept+2010+007.jpg  and At+Ease+in+March+019.jpg   These resolved to:
http://rhodes-22.1065344.n5.nabble.com/file/n42845/Sept%2B2010%2B007.jpg
http://rhodes-22.1065344.n5.nabble.com/file/n42845/At%2BEase%2Bin%2BMarch%2B019.jpg

So those pictures seem to be still stored 
somewhere within Nabble but I can't seem to come 
up with an easier way to find them and I don't 
know if it was just a fluke that I found the 
alternate link to those particular photos.

If this doesn't help, you might try posting a 
couple of the links to messages you really want 
the attachments for. We might be able to dig them 
up for you one way or another.
