I'm still waiting . . .

I called CMV (CBS Music Video) in NY today to ask about the alleged Kate video.
Here's the conversation:
ME: "I'm calling about a rumour I heard about a new Kate Bush video that might
	be coming out soon--"
CMV: (busy-office noises in background, impatient voice interrupts me) "It'll
	be in stores on February 13th."
ME: "Do you have a title or a price on that?"
CMV: "No, I don't."
ME: "Is it all new material?  A re-release of older material?"
CMV: "It's called 'The Sensual World'.  That's all I know."
ME: "Thank you."

I'm a bit confused about why no one's mentioned a few things yet:

1) No one's said anything about the poster-sleeve 12" single of "This Woman's
Work" (the one with the sleeve that folds out into a 24" X 36" black and white
poster of Kate (the same picture that appears on the cassette-single of "Love
And Anger")).

2) No one's said anything about the fact that "Be Kind To My Mistakes" is now
available on CD (as one of the B-sides of "This Woman's Work").

and 

3) No one has said one word about "I'm Still Waiting".  It kind of marks a new
era for CD fans--Kate's first B-side-only song that is available on CD.  It
also proves that Kate is part of the Rhythm Nation . . .  :-)

(If you haven't heard the song, the drums that open "I'm Still Waiting" are
almost exactly the same as the drums that open Janet Jackson's song "Miss You
Much".  However, that is where the similarities end.)
