When is HPS going to get modern and have an electronic archive?
In the world of real physics, there are many pre-print and electronic 
archives available for people to place their articles.  HPS can have one 
and require the submissions be in REVTeX or AMSTeX or whatever.  All they 
would require is that authors learn TeX (virtually all graduate students 
in physics use it).  You could also post thesis and dissertations which 
normally don't get published.  All the software is available free from 
ftp at pip.shsu.edu.  All you need is a sign on the door warning everyone 
that the articles have not been peer-reviewed.
