I bought some blank VHS tapes for $3.25 each and each tape costs $3.00
to send via Express Mail; I will sell each tape for $7.00 so it doesn't
take a rocket scientist to figure out that I'm NOT DOING THIS FOR
PROFIT.  I'm doing this because I realize that many other fellow
admirers of the beautiful princess weren't able to wake up at 3:00 a.m.
(central) to watch the coverage of this event as it aired live, or
possibly weren't able to set their VCR's to tape it for themselves.  So
if you're interested in owning a copy of Princess Diana's funeral,
please reply via e-mail to:  bosch@flash.net .  This tape was copied in
my own home using two VCR's hooked together NOT in a mass production
studio. It covers the funeral as it aired live on CNN -- the entire
procession from when the gun carriage departed Kensington Palace until
it reached the Abbey, all of the service, and the hearse route onto the
M1 which is about the time CNN stopped the coverage (total tape length:
approx. 4 hours). CNN only had one break in the coverage which was
almost at the end during the hearse route (not like NBC which frequently
had frequent commercial breaks during the whole event). The total price
is $7.00 (money order in U.S. currency) -- postage for shipments to
foreign addresses will vary in cost and will require the price to
increase in direct reflection.  Reply directly to  bosch@flash.net .
