FINAL CALL for "ASPEL" tapetree videotapes

 * * *  FINAL CALL FOR THE "ASK ASPEL" TAPETREE VIDEOTAPE  * * *

The Aspel videotape will, after some discussion, be delivered in its present 
form.  The concensus is that any "new and improved" versions of material 
already on this tape should become part of a *NEW* Tapetree project.  ( :-) )

The following is from Peter Manchester, original tapetree root:

> Andy Marvick (IED) and I compared notes this past weekend, and it 
> looks like the course of wisdom is to not delay anything [...]

>         Moreover:
> 
>         a)  The real meat of this tape is MoP and RM.  After that, the intact 
> Dutch Videos are a rarity for most people here.  
> 
>         b)  The Christmas Show is less rare, and a lot of your contacts will 
> already have serviceable versions of it.  Those who don't still get a solid 
> taste of it from this tape, defects and all.
> 
>         In my view, a restored Christmas Show ought to be part of a different
> project than this one.

>         Peter
