Glad to hear it. Not that I'm paranoid or anything. :-)
In all my babbling I neglected to thank you for posting the VCD version, they're popular with a lot of folks on Usenet. And yer nfo, with the interview, was really, well, informative - I never knew that stuff about him.
And I neglected to follow up on the Sound quality thing. I'm really impressed with the way he could seamlessly blend in TOS music.
And his encoding skills are top notch, some of the best vcd's I've seen. His WNMHGB, fer instance.
Of course I'm blown away by all these editing guys. They keep coming up with these brilliant techniques.
