I like the idea of archiving and maintaining, etc.  however, access to the
information too has to be considered.  when I unzipped the archives I got that
... sinking feeling, you know, dozens of files but not even a README
(equivalent).  so I suggest providing an additional document in some format
(PDF, html, or txt), that gives context and perhaps has a "manifest".

anyway, mindful of Mr's closing comment, I've thrown together an example html
page with sections for three of the granites -- literally a cut and paste job,
so layout (and <style>) are not right; it looks for the images in a 'img'
sub-directory.


regards, jr.
