Murphy & Profiles

What is this, Murphy strikes again? I moved my Apple /// so I
could open it all up and insert the new SoftCard ///. I have 2 profile
hard drives and placed one on its side beside some bookshelves
while I worked on the ///. A few minutes later I hear a crash and
look over at the shelf. The middle shelf had dropped down and
dumped everything on top of the profile knocking it over and burying
it. These shelves have been doing just fine for over 5 years, why
now? At least the SoftCard is in and working fine. I now have
CP/M installed and working with the other profile. I now only have
one slot left open, what else is available for the ///? As for the
other profile, I guess it is still ok. I've never used it and I'm not sure
if I want to use it on my ///. You see, it has a hand written label on
the front which says the Lisa Office System (scratched out) and
below that MacWorks 3.0 12/16/85. I can't decide if I want to
format it and use it on my /// or save it in case I ever get a Lisa.
Any way to copy off anything on it without a Lisa? Could the Lisa
format be read from a ///? Ok, it's a shot in the dark.
