You can do a search for them at:

http://www.dejanews.com

First, "Create a Query Filter", in this case I limited the search to the 
rec.arts.ascii newsgroup, and the ending date to 1996/06/06. This gave me 
2381 entries. Then I typed in the subject, dragons, and got 30 entries. I 
looked at about 5 of them, and then decided that you should pick out your 
own. 

I bookmarked dejanews at the Query page, other pages tell you how to keep 
your post from being archived, etc. Last time I checked, archived posts 
went back to about Nov. I don't know how far back they are able to go. So, 
when you submit something, make sure you give it a descriptive title. 

enjoy,
