My good friend John Judge often made the point of its enormous value. I know, first, she had a nearly complete collection of books, magazines and newspaper clippings [up to her death]. Next, she had letters that were sent to her with leads - sometimes by persons actually involved in some of the things she was researching. I would think, however, that her research notes would have the greatest value [connecting the dots - even dots she didn't have a broadcast on]. Also, a number of shows, I believe, have been lost - and she had notes she followed for the shows....often speaking extemporaneously to supplement her show notes. We also know that much of what she was working on at the end of her life she purposely did not broadcast all the details of [names not named, etc.], as she knew from the death threats she was on to something rather sensitive to someone. It would be interesting to know if she had hints of who was trying to threaten her [and likely killed her], as well as things like how much John Lennon helped her - and who else secretly did...et al. I assume there is a treasure trove of research which she either had not gotten to the bottom of yet, or simply had not yet gotten around to put into a show.
