I saw this question posed recently at Reddit I think: The internet is scheduled to go down forever. You have a week to prepare and download anything from the web you think is necessary to have for the rest of your life. What do you download and why?
I poked around a bit and there is more at that site that appears at first glance. Google has about 10,200 pdf files indexed, and they sell copies of the library for offline use - so me robotically downloading it all would not be cool - although I suspect there may be over 100 GB there so that probably isn't practical anyway.
If you want those PDFs I think I could whip up a script that will download them all. Of course if we are losing the Internet in this apocalypse I have to think electricity might be an issue too - so a bunch of PDFs on your Kindle or PC may not be that useful! Although you could probably keep a Kindle functional with solar...
