Okay, mi culpa...  I lost the link for these interviews on archive.org 
I have tried searching Google Groups to find the message that gave the 
link, and had *no* success.  I guess I am a bad searcher...

Can someone re-post the link for these interview texts???

Thanx in advance!

Which interviews? Without knowing that, I cannot begin to attempt using Google to 
find them.

Thanks... was actually hoping that whoever posted the link before... 
will re-post the link...

There is a section one archive.org that contains inter views with Will 
Crowther, Frank Heart, Len Kleinrock, Bob Kahn, and others.  This 
section also contains copies of articles on the ARPANET and the IMP.

When I had the link before, I downloaded many articles... but converted 
them simultaneously to pdf (Acrobat) file format.  archive.org has the 
files stored in Deja Vu (.djvu) format.  Then I found some of the 
conversions did *not* work correctly...  some text was omitted.

Thanx for your help!

After going to many different sources (including old bookmarks), ISTM 
the closest I can get is this extensive list of interviews and data on 
archive.org...  one still has to dig through a lot of various things to 
find a specific searched-for item:

https://archive.org/details/arpanet


Please remind me *never* to ask for this again... :-)

It matches your description:

a section on archive.org that contains inter views with Will
Crowther, Frank Heart, Len Kleinrock, Bob Kahn, and others.  This
section also contains copies of articles on the ARPANET and the IMP

and there are only 195 items in it. Also, archive.org does allow you to search within a specific collection.

Are you perhaps thinking of CHM's Oral History collection, instead
of something at IA?
