I actually read a few issues of the 'Space Family Robinson' comic before the series came out and was really stoked with the more serious black-and-white pilot.

Unfortunately then they went campy with space-bikers, space-hippies and 6-foot carrot people. Irwin Allen's shows all depended on the 'cast member gets taken over by alien-of-the-week' and someone must have been putting LSD in the water cooler.

Shame... the series could have been as good as Trek.

New?

I've been eating pizza burgers since the '60s.

Hasn't anyone every been in a Big Boy restaurant???

Should have used helium ---- would be a kick to see an entire pod of whales floating across the sky!!

Tastes just like chicken....

If ever a movie needed a sequel, Buckaroo Bonzai does
(with the same cast, too...)

As someone who actually PLAYS orchestral music, could it possibly be that some 'modern' compositions have more in common with a drawer of silverware being flung on the floor than the actual 'ancient' compositions?

Sounds more like someone is just unhappy that no one likes what they are pushing as 'music'....

Actually, there were serious talks of using nukes in Vietnam. But the administration knew that the PR fallout(!) would be disasterous....

I was in school when metrification started and knew instantly it would be a bust.... instead of throwing a raisin in your hand and saying THIS IS A GRAM, or saying THIS STICK IS A METER, they filled everyone's heads with confusing conversion formulas.

Stop using English measures and just go metric. Say THIS is a kilogram, THIS is a kilometer, THIS is a millimeter and be done with it....

Not unusual for claims of ultra-long-lifespans in that area of the world (remember the Dannon Yogurt commercials in the 70s-80s?)

But despite many years of searching, no one has really proved these claims. Usually when there is documentation, it's been shown to be records from their previous family members with the same names (again not that unusual in that part of the world.)

The BS meter is always pinging on these stories....

And her cancer treatments involve burning leaves and sacrificing frogs. What, is that not scientific?

"Yes ma'am, we'll go look for the vampire. While you're waiting would you blow into this balloon and pee in this cup???"

The sad part is that some wacko on one of the DIY websites will run out and try to copy it. They'll mail his ashes back to his family in an envelope....

His voice may be oscillating at less than 1Hz, but I really don't think you can hear that low to less than 1Hz.

From wikipedia: "Specifically in humans, we have a maximum aural range of 12 Hz under ideal laboratory conditions to 20,000 Hz in some individuals..."

Going below 10-12Hz puts you in the INFRASONIC range, where sound is felt, not heard.

Under the proper conditions, any loop of wire (even the coil in the speaker itself) can be an antenna. If they have the right coil in the next room, pushing a broadcast into a disconnected speaker is VERY possible.

Helps if the 'technicians' want to get some ghostly tourism to the area.....
