It wasn't a dirty tape (and it wasn't the signal either, because my husband watched the show as it was broadcast and was able to tell me what happened). My husband put the video back in and taped over it, starting at the beginning, and he says what he taped went on just fine and looked great. No edmats, then?

He taped over it! Shriek. I have also been able to fix it by rewinding it..hard. What a shame.

Actually, I thought she *hadn't* forgotten it, and was just holding something back because she's still a little bit pissed at Buffy. I can understand that. When I was 14, the most minor little detail pissed me off ... I can't even imagine what my reaction would have been if I'd uncovered a bombshell like the one she did. I supposed we'll find out which it was, but I really do think she was withholding information. +==========================================================================+ | Meredith Tarr meth@smoe.org | | New Haven, CT USA http://www.smoe.org/~meth | +==========================================================================+ | "things are more beautiful when they're obscure" -- veda hille | | *** TRAJECTORY, the Veda Hille mailing list: *** | | *** http://www.smoe.org/meth/trajectory.html *** | +==========================================================================+ ------------------------------ End of stillpt-digest V3 #19 ****************************
