 Greetings all, 
In the midst of the 200th Loop Of The Week Non-Contest, as you may have 
heard already, I received the news of Douglas Adams' passing.  To say 
simply that this is a great loss to us is nearly trivial.  In response I am 
doing several things: 
1.  "Hitchhiker's Lament" is a long piece just completed and will be 
posted before Friday night (the 18th) on the http://www.earthlight.net/Studios 
page.  Loops of the Week are no longer dedicated on the passing of people, 
but focus instead on the future.  In any event I felt that a single loop 
was not sufficient.  An entire meditation piece on this was therefore 
necessary. 
2.  While the Loop Of The Week Non-Contest was to have halted on 
Sunday night, it is now being extended to this Saturday night at 2359 GMT (1559 
PDT).  The reasons beyond the above are mainly that people didn't have 
enough time to get to the Studios site, and were in part confused about both the 
sending of a hit counter graphic, as well as whether entering would result in 
Spam being sent to them.  Hopefully these issues have been resolved. 
With Regards,
