Well, to each his own but out of curiosity, who do you think covers 
the same material better?  I'm not being defensive- I'd really to 
know of other writers who cover this area well.

PV is moving slowly because of John's widow.  That isn't to say that 
she's a bad person but she wants things done right (in accordance 
with what were John's wishes).  As far as I know, the issues seem to 
be how everything is going to be remastered.  Sue is kind of tired of 
how this is dragging out but I keep telling her that they've come 
this far and it seems that they're at the final stages now.  Also, as 
I've learned from doing other reissue projects, these things can take 
YEARS to do...

Best,
Jason
