The Frantics were a comedy troupe consisting of four guys.  They had a TV
show on CBC for a while.  Paul Chatto (sp?), one of the members, was a
member of Canada Remote Systems at one time.  Don't know if he is still
there.  He is also head of the CBC comedy department or something.  CBC
is probably the best place to get information on them.
