[rescue] Need to get rid of my sun collection

[Dave McGuire]

   Your DEC stuff is now at LSSM.

   We at LSSM have a strong interest in your Sun VME hardware, the Intel 
MDS, and your DG stuff.  Possibly the databooks.  It will have a good 
home there.  I don't remember from way back; where are you located?
