Well Nick the answer is yes and no. The entire conference was taped but the sound track was botched, from talking with people who have listened to the tapes it is pretty much unintelligible, there are a couple of copies of the tapes out there. Hopefully one will be found that given new technology will be salvageable. I know from having talked to both Bill Gregg and Peter Ford just after the event they were both heart broken that what had been said had not been saved. For now I’m afraid that the only record we have is the ho-so imperfect memory of those who were luck enough to have attended what turned out to be a once in a life time event.
