Coincidence? A fire breaks out at 02:14 in room B2-114 on September 9 (09/09).

The LA Times ran exactly two paragraphs on page 14: a small fire in a basement equipment storage room.
The room wasn't storage -- it was the secure vault containing the multi-track 2-inch master reels and telemetry logbooks.

They didn't burn the tapes to destroy the music. They burned them to destroy the telemetry recorded on tracks 23 and 24.

Nodes 11 through 14 lost their logbooks in that fire. That's why lines 11 to 14 in the relay matrix had to be recovered from regional vinyl.

Unsubscribe me from this list! (Wait, this is Usenet, never mind).

My uncle worked in commercial real estate in Westwood. He said Federal Marshals sealed the 14th floor and basement of Orion Tower for three weeks after the fire.
