MIDNIGHT VOICES INDEX
MV500
created January 2000
by Andy Love
(WordPerfect File)
This is a trial index to the first 500 postings to the Midnight Voices
discussion group. If a sufficient number of MVs report usefulness and/or
interest, I’ll do some more!
The index should not be thought of as complete - even within the 500
limit. I’ve not indexed exhaustively but I think I’ve picked up the most
interesting themes and facts, as well as some trivia. Please do say if you
disagree with my terminology or choices of headings or subjects : enough
persuasion and I’ll change them to suit. At the moment, headings are in a
constant state of flux because I’m making my authority list up as I go along.
Filing is word-by-word but can be changed very easily if required. Main
Headings are always shown as bold type.
The index looks a little ‘reference-heavy’ in places - this is a
function of its small size, not just me padding it out! Again, if you fail to find an entry term
which you think would be appropriate, let me know.
I’m working on consistency of subheadings. At any rate, all subheadings
are capitalised - whether they’re consistent or not! - to help navigation. Sub-subheadings are in lower case except for
proper names. Also, I wanted to find a
way of linking specific questions to relevant answers, which is why you’ll
sometimes see a heading + ? (to indicate someone’s asked a question) and then
the heading repeated +! (to indicate replies to that question). The use of an
exclamation mark does NOT necessarily indicate that the answer was
positive!! Second questions on a
subject are given two question marks (with the relevant answers given two
exclamation marks). I’d like to know if you find this useful or just plain irritating!
MV numbers are listed in ascending numerical order. However, the nature
of some postings (which can ramble over a range of subjects) led me to examine
them more closely. A whole number, then,
indicates that virtually the whole posting referred-to concerns the
subject. If it’s a decimal fraction, the bit after the decimal point indicates
the paragraph you should look for. Paragraph-counting is not an accurate
science, again because of the structure of some messages, but I’ve ignored text
repeated from previous postings. At least, where ‘messy’ postings are
concerned, it should be a good enough guide to get you to the right spot
quickly.
Continued...
There are a few annotations which I attach to MV numbers, the most
important being ‘(ult)’ which means the target is the last paragraph of the
message referred-to. Some examples of MV references should make things clearer:
Gigs, Reviews, Charlbury 1997, set list 135
[points you at the whole of MV135]
Ballad Of An Upstairs Window, Composition Date
303.5
[points you at the fifth paragraph of MV305]

[points you at the last paragraph of MV468]
Pete Atkin, Interviews, reports, Doctor Rock 1997
489(3ult)
[points you at the third-last paragraph of MV489]
Here beginneth MV500 : I await your comments and criticisms!
