Well, shoulda, woulda, coulda, but can't.  Wish in one hand and ...  The CD 
is readable in two different brand CDRW drives on two different machines both 
running the same OS and the same EasyCD or Easy DVD.  The DVD/CD drive in one 
of the machines won't read it.  And the DVD/CD drive in a third machine won't 
read it.  QED.  FWIW, the two separate drives in the one machine were both made 
within two months of each other by the same contractor (Plextor).
