Hi Glenn,

<gulp>

I can see about making a new image of that disk.

I just found out that one of the disk images on the geoSpecific CD is
corrupt. (I checked the file sizes of all the images, and it's the only
file on the entire CD that's the wrong length!) Anyway, it's one of the
geoManiacs disks. Does anyone know of another source for these online?
It's the one named GEOMAN9A.D64 in the geoSpecific collection ("side 1
of disk 10"); the disk title is "APPLICATIONS 17".

For those of us who bought the geoSpecific CD, will you make the
corrected disk image available to us, too?

Robert,

I'll give the new d64 to Glenn and everyone will be able to get it from his
lyonlabs web site along with the rest of the geoSpecific CD content.

Thanks! I'll put the .D64-converted disk next to my CD. :)

For the record, we're talking about one out of 270 disk images that has
an issue, and it was many years before I found it. geoSpecific is an
invaluable resource for die-hard GEOS users (the few, the proud)!

https://www.lyonlabs.org/commodore/onrequest/geos/geoSpecifi c/Index.html

Stay tuned for my new GEOS app, which I plan to show at VCFMW this fall:

http://vcfmw.org/

I've needed certain... resources to build it, which is why I've been
digging through geoSpecific, searching for its hidden gems.

What is the status of this? As the site still seems to have the corrupt
version online.
