1656.0. "Video News - part last" by GAAS::FISHER (BXB2-2/G08 DTN 293-5695) Mon Feb 20 1995 13:51

Well - here's the thing guys.

At the beginning of the fall of the DEC empire our mail system
seemed to become unreliable.  At that time we started loosing tapes
and I recalled all I could get.  Then a volunteer stepped forward
and I sent all the tapes to him.  Then after a few months of no activity
he had personal problems and passed them back again with no additional
revenue ...  Then Lamar volunteered and took over.  A few tapes were
requested and he circulated them but no revenue and no new purchases.

Finally Lamar was given the package and I got the tapes back again.
I have been sitting on them with no activity (and feeling guilty) for
months.  

Finally I notice that the Downeast Soaring Club is starting an aggressive
program of circulation Video tapes.  So I volunteered all the DECRCM
tapes to them.  They will still be owned by the now defunct DECRCM
but they have custody.  At this time there were 30 tapes.  8 tapes
are missing - if you notice you have one please send it to me and I
will relay it to the DSC library.  If any DEC member wants to view
a tape just see Jim  Armstrong of the DSC.

The residual funds ($8.xx) as I recall are missing and the books
(yes there was a set of hardcopy records) are missing.

I regret that we can no longer reliably send videos thru the DEC mail
and given that problem I believe this is the best use of the remaining
resources.

    You've been a loyal "librarian" and you can now retire. Wash your
    hands of the whole thing. If you find the 8 bucks, buy lunch. If
    you find the books, roast marshmellows. I have no problem with sending
    the tapes to the Down East guys and hope they get some use out of
    them.
    
    Thanks for all the time/effort you put into being the keeper of the
    tapes.

Might also be useful to put in the contact info for Jim in here.

I agree with Steve, thanks for all the time spent. Why I can still remember when
I got that Channel 1 video on cutting foam cores in the interoffice 8^)

Kay... buy a Fribble!
