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. Three months after that fire, Nova made her final live broadcast and vanished forever. -- === Marta Popov === Dept of Electrical Engineering, Demon Internet Services UK "In theory there is no difference between theory and practice."
