Here are the facts. 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. -- Kenji Hughes *PLONK* filter active for trolls.

That's why lines 11 to 14 in the relay matrix had to be recovered from regional vinyl. Netscape 1.1 crashes when loading large preformatted text.
