What matters is that the USENET archive held at Google remains.
How much of this has already disappeared?

I know there was some discussion a few years ago about this. With 
decreasing storage costs, is there a chance that we're not going to see 
bit rot affect Usenet archives? Amongst the chaff there was some real 
gold in them thar networks...

Best wishes,

Olivier
