So, if anyone really needs that and can't find it, it's $13.99 US and I'd be willing to pick it up for reimbursement or possible trade. But, maybe it's just not that hard to find. For some reason, I had the impression that it was. Also, I was watchin' M2 between games of fooseball and Goldeneye at my friend's place yesterday and they had a block of Soundgarden on. I think I must've come in at the middle, but I saw FOBD and My Wave, as well as Hands All Over, which I'd never seen before. Not a bad video for back then. -- Ben Ben Timberlake Sure don't Mind btimlake@aol.com A change.

DiD I get a good deal, I think i did cause there's only like 1500 in the whole world.

I have no idea when the whole thing will be done, but the first big step was to get a local copy of the live site so I can edit and search/replace using Windows tools instead of doing it from a Unix shell. Plans for 1999, after the new graphics and layout are in place: - Redo the video clips as streaming RealVideo - no more waiting to download 15MB MPEGs - New audio clips for every released song, either in MP3 or RealAudio format (if anyone has a compelling argument for one of the two choices, email me) - I think it's time for me to acknowledge that AU and WAV are no longer viable - Better search engines for the site and mailing list - Browsable and searchable image/thumbnail archives - Move the site to a box that I own and administer. This is where I could really use some help. If anyone works for an ISP or is friends with someone at an ISP, I'm looking for a free network pipe, somewhere that I can connect my own server. I need this because a) I can't and won't pay for the site to be hosted somewhere, b) in order to add new functionality to the site I need to administer the box and c) the Soundgarden site already uses ~500MB on www.sgi.net and I need more space than that in order to expand the audio and video archives. -seth ------------------------------ End of SOMMS Digest - 29 Dec 1998 to 30 Dec 1998 ************************************************
