["Pat" <pzumst@bluewin.ch>]

32 Short Stories was never released on DVD Region 2 for Europe. But have we 
complained and moaned like Bob ? No, some of us still wait untill this day 
for a proper release or even re-release (when oh when ? ), the other half 
(people like me) asked their Gamer mates and got software which can be 
easily and most of all legally purchased from any vendor for the PS2 and 
Xbox that will allow you to play DVDs with a different region code.

I just saw an ad in the local paper for Die Zauberflöte at a local concert 
hall (Hallenstadion Zürich in April). I actually just might go, just to make 
Bob green with envy....

Make Bob Happy, give tha man a proper double-double, some valium and 
possibly a ticket to Stratford for the summer ;)
