On the morning of 4 June, National Public Radio's Morning Edition program aired a major report (4 or 5 minutes?) about CES, and the only specific products talked about were CDTV (most of the report) and a quasi-joke thing called The Biological Clock. The reporter highlighted CDTV as being the only thing at the show which wasn't just a rehash of existing technology. A CBM rep (didn't catch the name, but had a British accent) was given a good deal of air time---he played an excerpt from M.L. King's "I have a dream" speech on the air. -- Stephen Walton, Dept. of Physics & Astronomy, Cal State Univ. Northridge "Lately it occurs to me/What a long, strange trip it's been"
