I had a series of hardware failures this week and lost my entire collection. It was 1 TB of videos and photos that I have been collecting over a 15 year period. I know that my brother collectors can feel my pain. Several of the videos are impossible to find now. I really don't have the heart to start over again. I won't be posting any new material. I won't be able to update any of my links as they go dead. These are hotfile links that could disappear at any time. I have a lot of hard-to-fine material posted here:

Thank you for the sympathy. I must have invested thousands of hours into this collection over the years. The truly sad part is that the collection included many things that are irreplaceable. Please everyone, keep multiple backups of your work! I'm not going to try to build a collection again. I'll just keep a few files at a time that I like.
