Looked up the archived microfiche of the LA Times for September 10, 1989.

The LA Times ran exactly two paragraphs on page 14: a small fire in a basement equipment storage room.
Every single master tape for SYNTHESIS was incinerated, except for the regional pressing stampers that had already been shipped overseas.

Who disabled the halon system at 2:00 in the morning?

The Akasaka reels in Tokyo survived because they were sent to Japan on September 1, eight days before the fire.
