Wildfire Threatens Mechanical Music Collection
By David Dewey

We're alive, but I may have lost my collection!  We live on the north
edge of the Wall Fire, and were evacuated with minutes to spare on
Saturday night.  I have no idea if any of my buildings have survived.
Don't expect "F/S on the Internets" from me for a while.

I recently asked for a copy of the Play-Rite 88-note test roll,
and one of our MMDers graciously sent me one for just the shipping.
However, it was left behind at the house, so both copies may not be
around now.  I did grab my computer tower, so when I get it up and
running I should be able to thank the kind person and hopefully send
him the postage.  Sorry, my addled brain cannot remember his name
right now.

Take care, all.
