Very disappointed that they don't have _Bembo's Zoo_

If there's a way to get it added, I'd be very glad of that (or if someone could figure out how to re-create it for the modern web)

Pretty sure it would be working in the Wayback Machine, if archive.org had configured it right.

I am very sad that it isn't, and I really wish that I'd figured out how to get an archival copy back when it was still available.

All the SWFs are archived (which is often not the case on Wayback). Just when the program is requesting to load one, archive.org is returning an HTML-wrapped file instead which fails to load. It would be quite easy to add to Flashpoint.
