So far as I know, we have _all_ five  piece files done, including all the 4 vs
1.  Are you
talking about the 5 vs 1 files?  No.  He is now producing 3 vs 3 and 4 vs 2 with
pawns, so we
are going to get some _big_ files coming down the pipe soon.  He has a 200+ gig
external
firewire drive he used to send me the files I have.   I assume once he fills it
up again, I will
get another 200 gig batch.
