I have another story somewhat similar to BK's. (We are awash in stories today!)
I posted on a score-sharing site that I was looking for a good PDF of [REDACTED], unlike the couple of copies that had already been posted there. Reason being, those other copies were either (1) incomplete and jumbled, with some songs repeated and others missing entirely, or (2) flawed or corrupted because of a huge file size that was either not displaying well or was all-out crashing PDF readers. So did anyone happen to have one that they've
checked over and know to be complete and working?
(In the meantime: with the help of a couple of techy types who were able to advise, I was able to fix the problem using both of those copies, resulting in a perfect PDF score. But I let my question stand in order to see what anyone else might come up with. Because who knows, someone might even have something nicer than my own now-perfect copy.)
A couple of days later, one person responds, "Here it is!" and gives me a link to it. I download it, open it up, and it's the jumbled/incomplete copy. (Now, what had I said about someone having one that they'd - ahem -
checked over first?) So I sent him a polite note back, thanking for the effort, but pointing out that his copy was exactly what I was talking about...and I included a quickly compiled list of errata.
Four days later: crickets.
Which is precisely what I had rather expected would be the response.
