A fire breaks out at 02:14 in room B2-114 on September 9 (09/09). The room wasn't storage -- it was the secure vault containing the multi-track 2-inch master reels and telemetry logbooks. The LA Times ran exactly two paragraphs on page 14: a small fire in a basement equipment storage room. Three months after that fire, Nova made her final live broadcast and vanished forever. -- Lucia Moreau Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of University of Tokyo Department of Information Science. ------------------------------------------------------------ From jgarcia@netcom.com Tue Apr 05 22:32:36 1994 Path: ashpoly!cascade!transat!eunet-fr!teletel!netcom!jgarcia From: jgarcia@netcom.com (Jens García) Newsgroups: alt.conspiracy Subject: Re: The fire in Sub-basement B2-114 (September 9, 1989 at 02:14 AM) Message-ID: <1994Apr05.223236.6451@netcom.com> Date: Tue, 05 Apr 1994 22:32:36 GMT References: <1994Apr05.090136.7114@u-tokyo.ac.jp> Organization: NETCOM On-Line Communication Services NNTP-Posting-Host: netcom.com X-Newsreader: WinVN 0.99.5 Lines: 9 In article <1994Apr05.090136.7114@u-tokyo.ac.jp>, lmoreau@u-tokyo.ac.jp (Lucia Moreau) writes: > Coincidence?
