 [pointing-up]  Not what I was thinking - though totally perfect!!  [thumbleft]  [laughing11]  But then you often take things in a totally different direction, and that's always a great thing!!  [nodassent]

Thanks!  My take on DS (as well as other things) has always been somewhat skewed and offbeat. I spent the early days of Shadowcon and festivals in the screening room watching episodes and treating them like Rocky Horror. I had no idea that would be such good training for here!

([pointing-up]  See! And some people might have accused you of wasting your time in the screening room - how foolish they were!!  [nodassent]  [lghy])

One of the major drawing points of the early conventions was to see episodes. Syndication in the early 1980's was very sporadic at best. And not only did I not have a VCR in those days, I didn't know anyone who did. The screening was always packed, until well past midnight. Some of the newer fans that I have encountered have a difficult time grasping this.

(They have no concept of the horrors people endured before VCRs, VHS, DVDs, and online video! No concept whatsoever!!  [nodno])
