The Gagarin Tape

 

Damon Douglas gave Peter Gagarin a tape recorder and asked him to run a course while talking about what he was doing. It was a great idea. The result - The Gagarin Tape - was fascinating. Peter narrated his race, describing what he was thinking and seeing.

Damon gave me a copy of the tape and the map with Peter's course. Unfortunately, I have no idea what I did with the tape. Maybe it is in a box in my basement. Maybe I gave it to someone and never got it back. Maybe I threw it away.

If anyone out there reading this has a copy of the tape, please let me know. I'd love to get a copy. I'd also love to get the audio and map on the web.

World of O News

The latest from WorldofO.com is embargoed until 8:00 central European time on March 28 (which is, I think, a bit over 4 hours from right now). I won't reveal the news...but I'd suggest that once that time has past, you head on over to WorldofO and look for the news yourself.

The Gagarin tape is missing? That's one of the cornerstones for the O' Hall of Fame! Help! Inspector Clouseau, s'il vous plait.
 
As a regular reader of crime novels to me this sounds like a plot straight out of a Robert Ludlim novel...
Could it be that the Gagarin Tape has been destroyed by secret agents in order to keep the more advanced steps of North American O techniques secret from the rest of the world?
