    Fond memories of the Mind's Eye videos. I remember when this was state of the art!

    Such is life, and :sigh:

    I bet there was an explosion of pine tar smell in the air.

    I think we've found out pandemic theme song, Mick Jagger and Dave Grohl's Easy Sleazy.

    If these were filmed but edited on videotape, they should remaster the SOPOT event and release it on HD formats...


    In other news:


    The live performance had the band speeding up the tempo because they refused to shorten the song for the 4 minute time allotment. Here's the original:



    Which is still pretty great, but it makes appreciation of the live ADHDTV version even greater.

    Again, if these were filmed but edited on videotape, they should remaster it and release it on HD formats...

    Spock selling laserdiscs with euphemisms lamer than mine? Still, talking to a blinking stone takes more guts...


    And Kirk selling home computers?




    That said, Alan Alda had the most pragmatism:


    There's no way to... mash it, that's pragmatism in action! :devil:

    It still amazes me to think that modern cellphones are capable of doing more than the computers that took up whole rooms back in the '60s.

    People thought the microchip revolution back then was amazing as well. Doctor Who had a great quote from 1988's "Remembrance of the Daleks" touching on it and anachronisms if someone left a 1988 boom box in the middle of 1963 London... shame YT doesn't have it...

    80s computers were simply more interactive, right down to saving one's data. Now it's just tap on a tiny glass screen and, voila, no effort required (Alan Alda's script and his delivery really got the most right of the lot...) That, and all the gizmos that Dick Tracy and Captain Kirk and Picard had are now real life...

    But, enough real life history for now... I'm off to play games on the Apple 2E. :guffaw:
