This is a rather short-sighted view, IMNSHO. Sorry you can't find the older stuff, but it's still a part of Glorantha! Yes, we should be better at explaining the old stuff, but this "I don't have it so it doesn't exist" attitude is carrying things way too far. There's way too much precious Glorantha lore that's OOP to simply dismiss out of hand.
When referring to an OOP work, we should also present a summary of the relevant material instead of saying "It's in the Big Rubble set", or "See Griffin Mountain"; no doubt it's this bad habit which has fired the wrath of so many "newcomers".
