Thank you Roger!. Sam Gentile lost his Radio Userland data in a hard drive crash, leaving him with the HTML files associated with his weblog (and his categories) but none of the data in weblogData.root, the database where a weblog is stored in Radio Userland.
I'm going to scrape the HTML files for his entries using Java and rebuild weblogData.root, probably by creating an XML version of his entire site as an intermediate step. Does anyone know of any Radio Userland verbs or third-party tools that will post weblog entries to the past? [Workbench]
What a very nice thing to do! Thank you Roger! It is so nice to see this in the community.

A lot of people will owe you a debt of gratitute. Sam's blog is an extremely valuable resource to myself and I'm sure many others. Getting him back up and running is key.
It will also be very comforting to know that such a tool exists. I am still going to implement a regular backup strategy, but I will still be nice to know there is an extra safety net. It never hurts to have more redundancy. Thanks Roger.
