How big is this rock I'm living under? I've been on the internet since about 1992 and have never even heard of TypePad.

Same here but I was never that interested in blogs. I can remember reading maybe a handful since the early nineties, but I was never much interested in other peoples ramblings. Other early web page types were much more interesting to me, some even had dancing hamsters!

I've used a program called HTTrack to do this in the past. It might work for Typepad..
