MJ-
I'd like a copy of that Negri video. Also, I'm considering buying a video 
from an Austrian guy on the Italian disobbedienti (sp?) movement, also in 
PAL format - would you be interested in a similar distro type situation with 
that video? Mayhap the two could be put on one tape for folks? (thinking too 
far ahead as always...)

cheers,
