Jatun	Jul 5 2006 5:52 PM Awww suckfest ! That really sucks to hear about Adrians computer and all the MoB recordings. You guys can get a hold of me, and I can try and see if it's possible to salvage the data on that hard drive. I'll try and call Adrian and see if he has any idea what he wants to do. Thanks for dropping us a line ... I'm really anxious to hear more stuff. Take care boys and girl. - Scott
