I wonder if by any remote chance someone out there taped the ABC presentation of life in Rainbow, "Life at the End of the Rainbow"? It was on their 'True Stories' program recently.

There's a write-up in this week's 'Weekly Times' p31. If you happened to tape it could you email me privately please? Beryl O'Gorman Greensborough Victoria Australia
