NBC has given permission (Please help Marty)

[Peter Milbury <pmilbury@ERICIR.SYR.EDU>]

Dear LM_NET Colleagues,

One of our Hospitality Committee members needs your help obtainig a copy
of the NBC Harry Potter Tape. Please read:

---------------------------------------
Greetings & Happy Holiday Wishes :-)

In early November, to coincide with the US premier, NBC aired a special on
the making of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. I was in Tokyo at the
time and was unable to record it off the air. Knowing I was going to be in
NYC for the holidays, I contacted NBC to see if I could purchase the
video. Their reply is below: the video is not available for purchase BUT
they have given me permission to obtain a copy of a copy to be used in
school. ( I guess there really is a Santa Clause.)

If any member willing to make a copy and send it to me in the USA would
reply to me at <mswist@aol.com> I would be most greatful and would gladly
reimburse the member for all expenses.

Best regards,

Marty Quist
