It would seem to me it would be in everyone's best interest to, if nothing else, clone the site and 
store the data, even if a new version of the site would have to have up on the page, where people 
will easily see it, a notice that it's for archival and search purposes only.

I know this past week I was doing research and all the links were timing out to that page - but 
that it had information I wasn't finding elsewhere (other than the Google cache of the site).
