91MB is easily fitable on a CD-ROM (CD = 650MB) and with my 2X write CD-R
it would take about 4 mintues.  My suggestion is to put the data in a
searchable HTML formated database.  Searchable for the obvious reasons and
HTML so people with PCs, MACs or UNIX etc. can all use it.

Personally I cannot imagine more than 50 or so CDs that wanted to be
produced so getting them commercially duped would be too expensive.  The
cost for a CDR is bulk is about C$2 a CD.

I am willing to donate my time and buy the CDs but someone will have to pay
me for the media which I think is only fair!
