That's it, 2004 archive finished, there are a few programs from 2003, one from 2002 and a few from earlier years, some are incomplete, some have suffered 
errors in the master digital audio tape (DAT) playback, where this has been too
bad, the sections have been removed, where the playback quality has not been 
too bad, I've left them is as an example of what BAD DAT sound like.

What comes NEXT? No idea, but I'm open to suggestions or offers of similar
program material.
