Joseph Francis's Comments

When I drive around LA I wonder how often it goes the other way around. For example when I drive past Curson Ave (Curzon Dax, maybe?), or Willoughby Ave (The Twilight Zone's "Next stop: Willoughby!"). Not that these are necessarily true, but sometimes when I cross a certain street I wonder.

Back in the early 80s when computer animation was fairly new a friend of mine worked for one of the companies that did the original 'Tron' CG. They also did TV commercials. One time a client wanted them to portray their car brand in the far future, where it flew into space. The client was impressed with the way the background, particularly the moon, seemed to move correctly. He asked how this was accomplished and my friend said, "We looked up the numbers in an astronomy book and we built the solar system ... actual size." The client went real wide-eyed as he digested that concept, and then quietly said, "whoa."
