Re: taping the "Computer Dreams" show, I've been informed that if anyone
even thinks of doing it, the TV Cops will come over, cut off your rabbit ears,
and stuff them down your VCR 'til they come out where the sun don't shine.  :-)

It was my belief that PBS shows were paid by our tax monies and, thus, were
PD, but such is (apparently) not the case.

The cretins operating the local PBS (Pledge Break Station) obviously realized
they had the only good show worth watching this entire year, and they milked
it for all they could get ... even at the end of the show they cut off all the
credits and pleaded: PUH-LEEZE SEND US MONEY.   Sickening.

So, to those who've asked: I have no idea who produced the show.  It was
called "Computer Dreams" and was hosted by the gal that was on the Max Headroom
show.

It was shown on KTEH, PBS Channel 54, San Jose, CA.  IF you want to call them
and get the particulars (so as to ask your local PBS station to get it and air
it in your area), call 1-408-555-1212 (info operator), state city "San Jose"
and ask for the number of KTEH-TV.
