And if the paper records don't exist, we need to get out and start interviewing people, not to put too fine a point on it, while we still have a chance.

如果纸质记录已经不复存在,我们必须抓紧机会去采访人们,说得直接点,趁还有机会。

After all, if the records aren't kept in some form or another, then the stories are lost too.

毕竟,如果这些记录没有以某种形式保存下来,那些故事也就随之消失了。
