Escaping from The Brain

Because of The Brain’s policy of emasculating web output from The Brain in favour of using their cloud service, I’m stuck with version 6 and its idiosyncracies and weaknesses mean I want to move a 9000 thought brain out of The Brain and into ConnectedText.  The Brain’s export functionality is somewhat limited and, again, idiosyncractic - for example, exporting to folders creates folders with the thought’s name but with each containing an html with a default name, so importing each html file is a chore.  Exporting to simple html equally exports to a structure which is difficult to import elsewhere.

Have any of the bright sparks on this forum experience on how to export from The Brain and import to CT, even if using a middleware program to do so?  The idea of manually altering 9000 pages of imported data is somewhat daunting!

Thanks in advance (and in hope!)
