Yes, dear. My database must have gotten corrupted again.

Which reminds me of something else I'm sure to screw up. I read somewhere
once that New York Gong had another name, Material, Magazine, or something
like that (I never could remember which). Material and Magazine are both
real groups. Any idea?
