I understand it was done through an interpreter, but it still would've been an interesting thing to be involved in. But since I don't have AOL, I unfortunately missed it. Maybe someone on AOL could see if there's a transcript or some such floating around? >> There is a transcript... Dave and I read it only just last week. I'll ask Dave if he can copy it for you & e-mail it over :) Robin T ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 17 Jun 1998 15:05:21 EDT From: Wargun2438@aol.com Subject: Re: Alloy: Koko's transcript I have the transcript for Koko if anyone still needs it.
