Cindy:
    Caroline is asleep, otherwise I would get her here to enter into this conversation! I was just taking a very quick scan of the Mudcat before going to sleep myself, and found your communication. How great to hear from you!
    We have to load up our camper and head up to the Champlain Valley Folk Festival tomorrow, so we won't be able to get back to you until we return -- maybe as late as Tuesday. When we get a moment, we'll reach you at your personal e-mail address.
    As for Dick Greenhaus' offer -- it's a good one and worth your consideration. I'd suggest the use of a good restoration program and technician, however. We've used Bill Gulvin, and he's terrific. I've also heard wonderful reports about the work of KatLaughing's friend "wilbyhillbilly." The CD-R products Dick Greenhaus offers on Camsco are keeping some music alive that would otherwise be lost. He's the co-creator of the Digital Tradition, you know, and I can assure you that he is trustworthy. We work with him frequently at festivals, etc.
    I'll be back in touch with you early next week.
