The site is great - but the strange thing is that the audio files of the Hilda Tablet plays - a great joy of my youth from the BBC Third Programme - were, as I pointed out a month or two ago, available online. I downloaded them a year or two ago, thank goodness, because I cannot find them any longer; doubtless the copyright squad have intervened: you can't buy them but they're don't see why you should get to hear them for free. mj Wenn die ganze Zivilisation zum Teufel ginge - ich würde es nicht bedauern; nur um die Musik tät' es mir leid.
