The issue with the first CD is there needs to be somebody handling
duplication. Matt has generously agreed to handle taking orders, shipping,
credit card processing, etc, through Marathon Records but he doesn't have
time to deal with logistics of manufacturing the CD's themselves, and Ray
Peck doesn't have time (obviously :-) to do that either. I've been 
intending
to attempt organizing the people on the vol 1 cd to figure out who has
CD-R's and would be willing to burn batches of disks (or deal with a cd
pressing plant) but I haven't had time either...:-(   Also, Ray said he was
doing another version of the master to include a fixed track somebody
submitted, so who knows where that is....

So Michael, if you or somebody else on the cd that's reading would like to
take on organizing this, please do. Probably it's best to start with CD-R
instead of pressing a 1000, and see how it goes from there. I would say you
need to get in contact with the others on the CD, find out who has a cd-r
and how many they are each willing to press, get the master to these 
people,
get the printed inserts from Ray to some convenient location where the can
be inserted in the jewel case, get all cds to that same spot, and get the
final box of cd's dropped off at Matt's doorstep. I'm hoping that somebody
can take this on, cause I'd really love to see vol. 1 come out!
