Dear Listmembers,
For the 53 Listmembers who have already written me, and the 2 who
have written Greg Leeman, and for any more who are interested in
VIDEOCOPIES of the 30-minute show, "Lunchbreak," on which I appeared on
January 20, 1998. here is the PLAN we have so far worked out for
distribution to you...........<grinning>:
I have discussed the potential issue of tape copying with BOTH of
my WCSH-TV hosts, Diane Atwood and Jim Crocker. Each reporter explained
that there is NO copyright issue, and no problem with duplicating an
excellent original home-made videotape that a member of my Parkinson's
support group donated to me (big sigh of RELIEF). That support-group
tape is a tiny bit different from the WCSH-TV tape on file at the TV
station. Permission for UNRESTRICTED distribution of the support-group
tape is unnecessary.
If you want a videotape directly from WCSH-TV, WCSH has
contracted with a Portland video company that charges you about $35.00
per videocopy. I think there would be additional mailing costs you would
pay for each copy ordered.
Greg, however, arranged a great deal at Videos Remembered, Inc., in
nearby Cape Elizabeth, Maine. This allows Greg and me to package and mail
Listmembers a copy of my original tape ( the support-group derived one),
for only $10.00 per copy. This price includes shipping in a bubble-pack
mailing envelope.
Greg went to see the Boston Celtics play tonight. I need to talk
with him so we can figure out how to handle your checks, including how
you will make out your checks, as well as which local Post Office branch
we will use to send out your bubble-packed tapes. I hope to catch up with
Greg tomorrow (Thursday), and arrange to get my master videotape to
Videos Remembered.
It looks like your tapes could be READY for shipping by early to
mid-next week. I will be happy to take orders through Tuesday, February
10th, 1998, by e-mail or surface mail.
So I imagine that by mid-February, tapes could be in your hands,
at $10.00 each.
If international and overseas shipping cannot be done for the
$10.00 price, Greg and I will let the List know.
Tomorrow morning I have the chimney-sweep and the carpenter to
deal with, plus Jennie and Nicky (Jay's kids) arrive tomorrow night for
four days. So I will probably squeeze in an update tomorrow night, but
it may not be possible to e-mail you until Friday.
Best wishes to all my "fans." You "guys" have a lot of faith in
me. It is really a good feeling. Thank you.
