Right. Therefore, he created *new* material in an attempt to recreate
what he might have wanted to create in the first place. Or something
like that. :)
Anyway, the point is moot. The Special Editions are "revised"

stifle the originals. That's patently wrong, and I hope he comes to
his senses on the subject.
