One of these years I'm going to have to deal with thousands of tapes my dad

it containing audio from programs that probably aren't archived anywhere
(variety, talk, interviews, panel shows) and I can assure you that he recorded
at the slowest speed possible on whatever machine he was using. Much of it was
on a Philips at 15/16 ips. Aaaaargh.

I have a similar situation with tapes from 1952 to 1958. Most were at 1-7/8, 
I think, but earlier 1/2 track ones were reused on tracks 3 & 2 when 4-track 
came along. 

However I need a motivation. What do you do with this stuff? It can't be 
distributed and I don't know anyone who wants to listen to it.
