[MD] Mindwalk

[Krimel]

Marsha,

The visual Quality of the online version is a bit lacking but you can
download it and copy it to CD or DVD. If you have trouble with downloading
it let me know and I will post it so that it is easy to do so.

It really should be required viewing. BTW, I believe this shorter version of
the URL will also take you to it.

Krimel,

And being a true wizard you found a way to make it available to 
all.  Your review is a wonderful tribute.

I have two VHS copies left, my own and one unopened.  I've thought 
for years that because it is no longer available to buy, I should be 
able to make a dvd version and continue to give it away.
