Okay, it is now a group effort.
Here is the final code.
Edit start and end to a range, probably ~10, and claim your range.
I'll do 0-10, someone should do 10-20 or so.
Post a .zip of the results of your range.
I have added parse tags to denote the post header, start, end, page start, page end, topic start, and topic end.
Here are the first 10, with start=0 and end=10. Next person should use start=10.
There are HTML comments denoting major points if anyone wants to make a reparser to convert it all to bbcode.
Edit: forgot the code. Duh.

Save it to a .html, edit start and end, and copy the result into a new file. It *should* work for most/all IE versions, because unlike firefox, they allow javascript to access external domains.
