[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	http://now.msn.com/living/0220-1906-earthquake-survivor-dies.aspx Rose Cliver wasn't supposed to live long after her premature birth, says the San Francisco Chronicle, but she endured for more than a century -- even after facing down the devastating 1906 San Francisco earthquake. Cliver, who died Saturday at the age of 109, was 3 when her hometown was rocked by the 7.9-magnitude tremor. She told the Chronicle at the 2009 annual commemoration that she and her family climbed Bernal Hill and "watched San Francisco burn." Even though there are at least four other known survivors with that seismic event etched into their brains, the death of the resilient resident, who enjoyed traveling and playing the slots in her later years, means, as @tonysam2 says, "Another piece of living history gone." 4 left, or rather at least, 4 left. -----signature----- Long suffering vassal to Xarkath, U.P. - Forever and ever
