There's a lot that goes along with a recording, that all needs to be 
deleted or changed in some manner for things to work right.  Unless you 
want to perform each of these tasks step by step, your only real option 
is to initiate of delete over Myth Protocol. Both the Perl and Python 
Bindings provide methods of performing this.
