HOLY Captain's Couragous !!!! There is BYRDSH#$%T in your eye Batman.

They have deleated another one of your postings!!!!!

The "heyday" is gone. However, collection continues. Collections, such as those within my famiy, exist across all of Americana.

Boards such as Mudcat make for easy access. The Library of Congress may provide a more useful repositorty for the unpublished Poe - and here-to-fore unknown Prairie songs.

Mudcat seems to have lost "the critical mass" for scholarly digging and dicussion. Blessed be the barbarian tide.

Sincerely,
