My major concern regarding the JMDL at the present moment is finding a subscriber in Canada with a functioning VCR who can tape the program. I am wondering if there is a cultural difference among Canadians and Americans (that I was unaware of ) regarding electronic equipment. The people who have posted about taping the show all seem to have unreliable VCRs or confusion about tapes. I am a single woman and have two VCRs and a DVD. Surely, there is a subcriber in Canada who can tape the show. There are places that will make a copy for you or you could send it to one of us (me) and it could be duplicated. If not, someone in the states should be able to get this on satellite. You know who you are, whether you get CBC, so please step on up.
About Norah Jones.....In the December article in W magazine, Joni stated that she liked Norah because she she didn't try too hard or something like that. She was the only new artist that Joni mentioned, other than Bjork, who she said she liked more as a performer. Also, Ravi Shankar is Norah's biological father, which I find extremely interesting. In spite of it all, I am oddly addicted to the JMDL. Please note that sometimes when I post, some of my directness is half truth - half tongue in cheek. Many people have been lovely to me on this list and I have engaged in many pleasant exchanges. The only person on the list I love is Bruce who I have been friends with for 33 years. I save my love for my friends and family. Andrea
