John, I would love to see those interviews and photos!! Absolutely, if I just could get them somehow? That kind of material would definitely add some more (academic) value for my research! Would it be possible to send me a copy of that DVD and photos by DHL? I will pay for the costs of course. I can also send them back after analysing them. Please let me know if it works out! I would be very very grateful for your help! Do you have a private e-mail address where I could send my address? I would also need your bank details for the payment. Thank you so much before hand. -Riikka --Previous Message-- : Trish has compiled 17 interviews with original : founders of San Pancho and Wheels has them : converted to DVD's.
