Ah.  That explains it.  Back when I had Internet access at home, I attempted

half-way through before it got too slow and the download timed out.  Which 
means I've got half of some episodes, and none of others.

Oh...

Perhaps we should do something about that...

Um, does that answer your question?  ^_^

Yes, although I do not think he fits.

Okay, so this is the reason why hardly anyone has responded yet.  I
think.  Please let this be it.  I'd hate it to be because everyone
understood it and only a few actually liked the idea. 

I think I understand now from what everyone posted me.

I'm sure you're aware of the principle of multiple takes.  That is, when
a TV company or a film producer shoots a film for TV, sometimes it take
multiple tries to get it right.  Say, someone fluffs their lines, or
misses their cue, or a stunt goes wrong, or a mirror catches the
reflection of the camera crew...

Yes.

you get the idea.  This, in actual fact, is called a blooper, which is
just another word for mis-take in this context. 

Ok, I know the word now.

Right, now that I've defined blooper, here's the idea.  I proposed the
suggestion of a piece of work named "The Great Anime Fanfiction
Bloopers".  As a few of us on the FFML discussed it, it was decided that
it would be a good idea if as many FFML authors would write bloopers for
their own pieces of fanfiction, and post them to the FFML.  Then,
someone would collect them (at the moment, that's me, but only cos I've
kept copies of all the bloopers that have been sent so far...), and then
sort them out, and post the finished version to... um... I think that
was as far as the idea went, basically because posting it back to FFML
might be pointless, and I didn't have access to RAAC, so someone else
would have to take up the torch. 

I have no time to do that.

I am head of a research department.

Have four current series I work on for publishing.

Three books that are due out this summer.

Sets of stuff to translate.

A couple of other offers.

And several colaborations.

I don't have time.
