Firstly, Art's copy is so faint, I couldn't scan it with my hand
scanner. Secondly, a new transcript is being preparing (I can't
remember if I am at liberty to say by whom - so I won't), from
the original tape, because there are some possible minor errors and
omissions in the existing transcript.
When the new transcript is ready, Denis can rest assured it will
be posted to the Reflector! ;-)
