Old issues of Scree, dating back to 1990, are available. Some of the plain-text issues are missing because the Editor of the time couldn't (or didn't) export plain text or save the word processor source files. Many of the PDF files have serious spelling errors because the OCR software can't read through folds and smudges.
Use Exchange or AcroRead Version 3.0 or later to read Acrobat PDF files; older versions won't work. PDF (or Portable Document Format) files are similar to Postscript, but smaller. When printed, the PDF version of the Scree is identical to the hardcopy version. Free Acrobat Readers are available from Adobe for PC (DOS, Windows, OS/2), Mac, and Unix computers.
The Climber.Org navigation and search page is a great place to browse, and you can submit word searches there.
