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 Los Angeles Fire Department incident report notes that the halon gas suppression system had been manually disabled 20 minutes prior. They didn't burn the tapes to destroy the music. They burned them to destroy the telemetry recorded on tracks 23 and 24. -- Jen García "A soul is not exclusive to biology."
