Matthew - thanks for the very kind comments. I have been called many
things but not inimitable before so thanks for that! It is good to see
Martin getting some credit for his work too.

On incomplete shows, it would be good to work on singling out the better
recordings of course. Can I just say that I encourage EVERYONE to upload
copies of your shows or links to them, even those in more recent times
as your copy may be better quality than those already uploaded.

I can only think of one radio edition and one TV edition where there is
any actual play missing. The radio one is the 1984 show "Marie Celeste"
345/18/5 where about 10 seconds of the first round are missing, so I
would think there are better editions around on most or all of these
other shows.

On a related issue, someone asked about cutting together different bits
of different shows either for quality reasons or because parts were
missing in one version. I had one show where the interference was REALLY
bad and when it was played here in NZ, I was looking forward to
recording a better version. Unfortunately there was a power cut and I
only managed to record the second half of it. I cut them together and it
did work and was better than the alternative. I'm not so sure about a
more patchwork effort but I'd say it could work if you could control the
levels - it would be exceptionally annoying if you were continually
having to turn the volume up and down.

Perhaps Martin or Emile or someone else will have some thoughts on these
issues that I think are very important.

Thanks again for posting Matthew - hope to see you posting again here
soon. :)

Dean
