 	That would be nice, but it becomes kind of hard to explain why 
they haven't released any of it when material's been short. Instead, my 
mind can't help but recall a line of Steven Wilson's in the sleevenotes to 
_Yellow Hedgerow Dreamscape_, "in those days I would very often fill a 
tape with experiments, mix it down, then erase it all and start again"... 
Yours,
