I'm 66 and if I live to be 100 and scanned eight hours a day, I doubt I
would be able to plow through this 30 odd years of  handwritten
transcriptions (I'm older than photocopiers), notes on napkins in my own
brand of shorthand, written conversations I have had with myself, etc.
Nobody else would ever know what a lot of this means, anyhow.  I guess I
ought to at least start getting it into a sharable (is that a word?) form.

Why not make a deal with someone who is in your line and would want the
information.  Give them the information on condition that they scan it and
make 10
copies.  Once scanned, a CD can be burned in 10 minutes.  Give copies of the
CD to genealogist and/or libraries.  It can then be copied, printed or
traded.
10 genealogists with CD's to share will ensure the information will never
die.
