Okay, I've found that one, decoded it, and added it to the repo.
Short story but excellent art. I think I see why that got missed.
It's uuencoded BUT it's quoted with ">" on every line.

The one I found was just four lines (including begin/end) and might
decode for me correctly for me: uudecode says "short file", but I did
get an output "Moebis.uu" which does decode, into a one line text file:

	It's turtles all the way down...

I don't recall which one it was, but I did find one twelve line
uuencoded file that decoded. It was one of the first I added from
my hunt through the Usenet archive file. Ah yes, "begin 644 dogsex.vt.z"
which is a slight variation on "dogs.vt".

I've got a couple of his already.

Hitting Wayback Machine is still on my to-do list.

But now I'm going to have to search for ">" protected uuencode
files. I've found a couple of still images like that so far, like a
Calvin.txt and gardrose (garden rose).
