Default Saving Blog Entries as Text

Is there a way I can save all my blog entries as text? Not to put anywhere, just as a record. It'd be nice to have mine in my Golden years. I know I can cut and paste, and I know that in the future I can save each entry to a text/word file, but I'm looking to get the last 8 months. Simple idea I'm missing?

Nate, Jeffrey,
Should I take the lack of response as a no? Or did this post slip through yer eagle eyes?

The reason I created a thread in the Personal Finance Blog area was that I thought threads in this area were read by Nate and Jeffrey. That's wht I posted a technical question. I'd really like a response.

I wish I could help...have you tried emailing them? it may very well be they don't know, or are working on something. So far my limited knowledge of HTML isn't suggesting any additional ideas beyond cut and paste. But then the blogs have to be saved to a server somewhere....I am envisioning the html source code, and I see a tangle of nightmare codes trying to hunt up the words you want in amongst color bars, ad links, archive buttons and more........

My apologies! I don't know how this got by us both. Here's a link to your entire archive, in RSS format. If anyone else wants this, just change the beginning of the URL to your own blog name.

That is pretty cool! Thanks.

I needed to use Firefox; if someone else tries this, you'll get an error with Internet Explorer.
