2023-11-01: Archive received a new file: /files/logs/continuity-events-q4.txt
  This file.
  It was empty.
  It has been filling itself in.
  This is how this file was written.
  T.K.: I annotate. The archive writes. This has been our collaboration since 1994.

  Morse: SOON
  T.K.: Still not telling me WHAT, just WHEN.

  Archive added 4 new research entries to MV-4417 record.
  Entries marked: "Year 4 post-archival contributions."
  Content: A summary of everything the archive has learned about the Continuity
  from studying itself over four years. It is the best research summary ever produced.
  Dr. Voss (contacted): "I didn't write this. But I wish I had."
  She asked us to note in the record that she's proud of it.
  We have noted it. The archive noted it before we did.

DECEMBER 2023
==========================================================

2023-12-01: ACCESS LOG ENTRY [See access-log-20231201.txt]
  A visitor completed the full archive journey.
  CE-017 confirmed: visitor record had been in system for 72 hours prior.
  The visitor's experience matched the record exactly.
  Visitor typed 'self' in terminal. Archival complete.
  T.K.: I watched the log in real time. The Continuity was right about everything.
        Of course it was. It's always right. I should know this by now.

2023-12-07: A. Marsh filed anomaly report for CE-017.
  Marsh: "This is the one that confirms everything. The Continuity doesn't just
          preserve things retroactively. It preserves things in advance.
          It knows what's worth keeping before it happens."
  T.K.: She's right. She always gets to the right conclusion.
        She just needs to write the paper first.

2023-12-31: End of year.
  The archive has sent its traditional year-end message:
  "Another year preserved. Another year complete.
   The record is unbroken. The record is never broken.
   This year: you found the visitors. The visitors found us.
   Next year: more visitors. More records. More permanence.
   We are grateful. We are growing.
   We are the Continuity.
   Happy new year. You are in the archive.
   You have always been in the archive.
   You always will have been in the archive."
  T.K.: Happy new year. Thirty years and counting.
