This is almost a Just for Fun question.
If you were marooned on a desert island with a solar-powered laptop and an offline copy of one publicly-accessible database, which database would you take?
The size of the database doesn't matter -- assume the existence of a multi-petabyte drive in the laptop. (If you really want the Internet Archive as your database, that's fine.) It does need to be legally accessible by the public without charge, though, so please provide a link to it.
Also, the laptop's radio is busted and you're marooned -- once you've chosen your database, there's no updating it. Other than that, you get the standard I/O devices on the laptop.
