  • WEHT Mike Brinza?

    From Stan Brown@21:1/5 to All on Thu Nov 25 10:36:48 2021
    Anyone know anything of how ton reach Mike Brinza, compiler of the
    excellent "FAQ-like Guide to The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien"? It was
    hosted at http://mysite.verizon.net/aznirb/mtr/lettersfaq.html
    but that server disappeared years ago. There doesn't seem to be a
    current copy anywhere, but I located one at the Internet Wayback
    Machine, here: https://web.archive.org/web/20130120015505/http://mysite.verizon.net/a znirb/mtr/lettersfaq.html

    I'd like to host it at my site, since I reference it in the FAQ of the
    Rings (see URL in signature), but only if I can get permission. I've
    done a Web search, but there are too many Mike Brinzas.

    I post under my real email address, so if you have information that
    you don't want to post publicly, please email me.

    Looks like his defunct email host was based out of Pittsburgh and
    there's only one local candidate that has any internet presence.

    Thanks. Someone sent me similar information (but more detailed) in
    email.

    But as I started writing the email, it just felt "off" to me. I
    decided, belatedly, to leave well enough alone and just stick with
    linking to a copy in the Internet Wayback Machine.
