Due to the generally positive responses to my previous post about ZIP
comments, I have obtained several thousand more for your enjoyment.

Thanks to Defacto2 for providing his huge collection as well as
everyone else who contributed.  The new collection is online in the
same place as the original:

Enjoy.

Again, anyone with even more to add, email me at
[sysop@ipingthereforeiam.com](mailto:sysop@ipingthereforeiam.com).

For those of you interested in the nuts and bolts, I started with
around 35,000 comments.  After removing the dupes, the p0rn and the
just plain ugly, I was left with over 4000 comment files.  I made
extensive use of Perl.

OK, the "original" collection swelled to over 4300+ zip comments, so I
started a second collection.  This one is already up to 2600+!

Dig it:

That was NOT easy to parse, but I got a lot of comments out of it.
Thanks.
