By an exteme coincidence after I finished my last reply to you I took the 
top record off of my 78 pile (I have about 3.000 78s about the house, I put 
a stack near the Victrola and play them once, usually I don't have my 
glasses on and don't even know what I'm playing until I hear it, then I get 
my glasses to find the title) the record I just put on was "You're a Sap Mr. 
Jap".  Do you think the Sony Corporation really wants this record to see the 
light of day again?
