Re: credits

The DT/MC has evolved into an amazing place.

It is much bigger, there is more "flash," than ever before.....and sometimes things get lost.

I "visit" a lot of "web-pages" within any given week. Many of them have credits. (Sometimes, one cannot get past the credits to the page itself).....However, in the DT past, there was a wonderful story of dick and Susan meeting with their notebooks of notes...and the DT being born out of it...

Perhaps the story is still here....and, I am blind to it.....If it is not...please try to re-establish it...(unless, of course, the creation has become a "Frankenstien's Monster"

It is the innocent simplicity of folk songsthat drew me here....and the innocent simplicty of the site which appealed to me...(this was a place I could "deposit" tunes/lyrics that "no one else but my family knew" it was an "archive" of folk-song historia.
