And it only took us nine years, an 18-month hiatus, one lost episode and thousands of fans.<br /> <br /> That's right, it's our <b><span style="font-size: large;">100th</span></b> episode.<br /> <br /> We asked you what you wanted to hear for the centenary of the first podcast for Sherlock Holmes devotees, and time and again, we heard from you, telling us to do a retrospective - a look back at our favorite moments from what we've accomplished. We also asked you what your favorite moments are and what you wanted to know from us. Well, we managed to deliver on both.<br /> <br /> Our 100th episode gave us a chance to reflect on exactly what turning 100 means, and to dive back into our murky and fuzzy origins. We try to answer some of your queries and we celebrate those who joined us previously before launching into our top memories of the show, as represented in audio clips. Our Gas-Lamp features two readings, including a new one created just for this episode. Finally, we wrap up with a couple of important announcements that you won't want to miss.<br /> <br /> And perhaps there's an Easter egg somewhere as well...<br /> <br /> <div> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a div="" gt="" href="https://www.patreon.com/bePatron?u=2318606&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Fihearofsherlock.com%2Fpodcast"><br /> <img height="40" src="https://s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/widget-images/become-patron-widget-medium%402x.png" width="204" /></a></div> <br /> We thank Mary Miller for her ongoing and generous support of our program on <a href="http://patreon.com/ihearofsherlock" target="_blank">Patreon</a>.

But  rather than simply rehash the tried and true, we thought we'd mix things up a bit this year and bring in a guest.<br /> <br /> Peter Blau, 2s., BSI ("Black Peter") has been with us previously (on <a href="http://www.ihearofsherlock.com/2007/08/episode-06-peter-blau-part-1.html#.VJ5ffXkKA" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Episode 6</a> and <a href="http://www.ihearofsherlock.com/2007/08/episode-07-peter-blau-part-2_27.html#.VJ5fiXkKA" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Episode 7</a>), so we'll spare the full introduction. We asked Peter on as our very special guest in order to tell the story behind his very unusual Sherlockian decoration: a Sherlock Holmes-themed set of ornaments - each inspired by one of the original 60 stories. He regales us with the challenges involved in trying to identify these ornaments without a copy of the Canon handy.<br /> <br /> Each year at his tree-trimming party, Peter challenges newcomers to identify each and every ornament - and we can attest that many are head scratchers. Here we have images of a handful of the ornaments, as well as the tree:<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2z3ND3HrzzRhSXDxEuhuVfEHThVch8iesNkr3xszY7y1LMRZE2ZlbH4_do3D25JPjS3ZkhZLCaMkURlfMcxmrFph_YgUNAIRjEkH6Nq-Pb_GEG3RXqjqPIUG-Ohm5kCsAEbdkQd039yHP/s1600/Sherlockian+Tannenbaum.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2z3ND3HrzzRhSXDxEuhuVfEHThVch8iesNkr3xszY7y1LMRZE2ZlbH4_do3D25JPjS3ZkhZLCaMkURlfMcxmrFph_YgUNAIRjEkH6Nq-Pb_GEG3RXqjqPIUG-Ohm5kCsAEbdkQd039yHP/s1600/Sherlockian+Tannenbaum.JPG" width="300" /></a></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiahN10gdroJwuPsy354JLIkkZWHmV-6kpFyLrdYcE_NT8C2aW0VXqO8rpAGQNjCl_HfyevU3fULHY8gNxiIW_asXtujBs0MHpXELIbOtUpRLn_LTvPp3jTG1xbKhR2oRRqTTdY0XDho8o0/s1600/Blau+tree+ornament+5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiahN10gdroJwuPsy354JLIkkZWHmV-6kpFyLrdYcE_NT8C2aW0VXqO8rpAGQNjCl_HfyevU3fULHY8gNxiIW_asXtujBs0MHpXELIbOtUpRLn_LTvPp3jTG1xbKhR2oRRqTTdY0XDho8o0/s1600/Blau+tree+ornament+5.jpg" width="266" /></a></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimikq5zqp2fQvLX3sccLlkBpPuEOZnDMrikbalPhucLUnEDzz-kpMNbpXf4Gc5PUcV_j0C-uEGgTROtHAEtcyihq2ledW4hbtnBIMHtv3T_i7NmUEpAlbU0Qg4nefuuhjEYTI8sY6dJ1Uy/s1600/Blau+tree+ornament+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimikq5zqp2fQvLX3sccLlkBpPuEOZnDMrikbalPhucLUnEDzz-kpMNbpXf4Gc5PUcV_j0C-uEGgTROtHAEtcyihq2ledW4hbtnBIMHtv3T_i7NmUEpAlbU0Qg4nefuuhjEYTI8sY6dJ1Uy/s1600/Blau+tree+ornament+2.jpg" width="266" /></a></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <br /> If you'd like to see additional ornaments, you'll find them on the the IHOSE apps for <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DZUTGYS/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00DZUTGYS&linkCode=as2&tag=thebakerstree-20">Android</a><img border="0" src="http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=thebakerstree-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B00DZUTGYS" />, <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/podcast-box/id419361759?mt=8">iOS</a>, or <a href="http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-us/app/d1029dc0-f4b0-470e-bff5-3d6e787aaf9e">Windows</a>.<br /> <br /> Peter also tells us about his paper written some 40 years ago in which he describes the true story behind how a cropless animal such as a goose could have a carbuncle hidden in its crop.TL;DR: it comes down to a typo - an 'o' substituted for an 'a.'<br /> <br /> We close this episode with an audio Gas-Lamp: inspiration taken from our interview with Bert Coules (Episode 68 and Episode 69): a clip from the BBC Radio version of "The Blue Carbuncle" that hits at the core of the relationship between Holmes and Watson.<br /> <br /> <br /> <b>Links</b>:<br /> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.bsitrust.org/" target="_blank">BSI Trust</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.bsitrust.org/archive/morley-letter-1949" target="_blank">Letter from Christopher Morley to Edgar W.

It's been big news, getting coverage in such circles as <i><a href="http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/12/27/sherlock-holmes-is-in-the-public-domain-american-judge-rules/?_r=0" target="_blank">The New York Times</a></i>, <i><a href="http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/dec/27/sherlock-holmes-copyright-ruling-public-domain" target="_blank">The Guardian</a></i>, <i><a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/sherlock-holmes-judge-declares-popular-667755" target="_blank">The Hollywood Reporter</a></i>, <i><a href="http://blogs.wsj.com/law/2013/12/27/plot-twist-in-sherlock-holmes-case/" target="_blank">The Wall Street Journal</a></i> and scores of other publications.<br /> <br /> As listeners of our program know, Leslie S. Klinger, BSI ("The Abbey Grange") has been a frequent guest on the show, joining us for a <a href="http://www.ihearofsherlock.com/2011/03/episode-31-chat-with-les-klinger.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">two-part interview</a> on his <a href="http://www.ihearofsherlock.com/2011/04/episode-32-untitled-les-klinger-sequel.html#.U-5ZxvldWAU" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">role as consultant</a> to the Robert Downey, Jr. films, and then again <a href="http://www.ihearofsherlock.com/2012/10/episode-47-re-vampires.html" target="_blank">talking about his Annotated Dracula</a> work. Of course, Les is also the lead plaintiff on the lawsuit in question. You can read some background to this and listen to one of our most popular episodes in the links below.<br /> <br /> We were once again joined by Les, who outlined the background of the case and discussed some of the legal aspects of copyright that have led us to this juncture. We try to keep the discussion as interesting as possible for the lay people out there, and Les even manages to bring in the 1903 coronation of Edward VII as part of the case law history.<br /> <br /> As if landing an interview with the lead plaintiff in the case weren't enough, we also managed to sit down with Betsy Rosenblatt, BSI, ASH ("Lucy Ferrier"), who is not only a second generation ASH and BSI, but also a legal scholar who just happens to specialize in intellectual property law (how fortunate is <i>that</i>?). Betsy touches on some additional points that will undoubtedly be of interest.<br /> <br /> While we weren't able to find an Editor's Gas-Lamp per se, we used a bit of scholarship presented at the annual meeting of the Speckled Band in 1992 by the (now) late Joseph Merriam. We've included it here as a bonus.<div><br /> <div style="-x-system-font: none; display: block; font-family: Helvetica,Arial,Sans-serif; font-size-adjust: none; font-size: 14px; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font: 14px Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: normal; margin: 12px auto 6px;"> <a href="http://www.scribd.com/doc/194677142/Impact-of-the-Law-on-the-Sherlock-Holmes-Stories" style="text-decoration: underline;" title="View Impact of the Law on the Sherlock Holmes Stories on Scribd">Impact of the Law on the Sherlock Holmes Stories</a> by <a href="http://www.scribd.com/ihearofsherlock" style="text-decoration: underline;" title="View I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere's profile on Scribd">I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere</a></div> <iframe class="scribd_iframe_embed" data-aspect-ratio="0.619080301990391" data-auto-height="false" frameborder="0" height="600" id="doc_800" scrolling="no" src="//www.scribd.com/embeds/194677142/content?start_page=1&view_mode=scroll&access_key=key-2lrxek8y98c1fm9redeh&show_recommendations=true" width="100%"></iframe> <br /> <h4> Links:</h4> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li><a href="http://free-sherlock.com/" target="_blank">Free Sherlock website</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.scribd.com/doc/194685130/Order-on-Motion-for-Summary-Judgment-on-Free-Sherlock-Case" target="_blank">Read the legal documents here</a></li><li><a href="http://www.ihearofsherlock.com/2013/02/imagine-that-you-can-bully-me-chas_14.html">Sherlockian Lawyer Takes on Conan Doyle Estate</a></li> <li>Other episodes mentioned:</li><ul><li><a href="http://ihose.co/ihose32">Episode 31: Les Klinger</a></li><li><a href="http://ihose.co/ihose32">Episode 32: Untitled Les Klinger Sequel</a></li><li><a href="http://ihose.co/ihose47">Episode 47: Re: Vampires</a></li><li><a href="http://www.ihearofsherlock.com/2013/04/episode-51-who-is-sherlockian.html" target="_blank">Episode 51: Who Is a Sherlockian?</a></li></ul> </ul> <br /> <h4 style="background-color: white; color: #0e0e0e; font-family: Merriweather; font-size: 18.2px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: center;"> <a href="http://traffic.libsyn.com/ihearofsherlock/ihearofsherlock_freesherlock.mp3" style="color: #006f85; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">Download</a> [Save As] | File size 34.8 MB, 1:15:59</h4> <br /> <iframe allow="autoplay" frameborder="no" height="166" scrolling="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/134355181&color=%23ad1215&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false&show_teaser=true" width="100%"></iframe><br /> <br /> <br /> Please <a href="http://bit.ly/ihearofsherlock">subscribe to us on iTunes</a> and be kind enough to leave a rating or review for the show.<br /> <br /> Your thoughts on the show?
