what's a tape?
Maybe it was here on our beloved board, maybe on another - I don't remember - but somebody recounted that they were watching a rerun of DS and it was the scene, set in PT1970 when the "Angelique's Theme" record was placed in the phonograph. The child of the parent who was watching the scene was completely confused at what was going on regarding the record and the phonograph and asked: "What's that?"
We're getting old, many of my beloved DS cousins here. We're getting old. But don't pull out the Geritol and overdose on it, my beloved DS cousins! I've read several news reports where those vinyl discs and turn-tables are making a significant come-back. It turns out that they still posses the best clarity of anything that has come down the pike, whether CD's or whatever. It turns out that what we had back "in da good ol' days" is still the best. Now, as one of the ancient cousins here, let me tell you youngin whippersnappers how I had to run home after school, in a blizzard during a June heatwave with no air-conditioning, 40 miles, uphill, to watch DS on a B&W TV set with only three viewable channels that required a rodar (e-mail me privately to explain what that was) and had knobs for on/off (and the TV had to be "warmed up" before we got any image - e-mail me about that, too), channel changing and volume. Oh, and don't forget about adjusting the horizontal (again, e-mail...oh, never mind).
