[Coco] [Color Computer] Yahoo shutting Groups from Oct 21

[Kevin Becker]

I used the YahooGroups-Archiver with success on the MC-10 List.  But it doesn’t capture files.  I’ve been download those manually.

It times out a lot, yahoo groups have been on life support for a while now I think, but if you restart the script it picks up where it left off.
