<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>We got a surprise visit from a government auditor
at the Avalon TV Centre one day. He picked some items from the asset
register and asked to have a look at them.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>One of the items he wanted to see was an ACR25
"Video Recorder". VHS had just become available back then and I think he
was expecting to see something similar. One of my colleagues gasped and
said "Oh no...were caught. X took the machine home last night to play with
it".</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The auditor said where is X now. We replied
"He is on the night shift. We could ask him to bring the ACR25 back when
he comes in. If you can come back after transmission closes at midnight we
can show it to you then".</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The auditor never came back.</FONT></DIV>
