Alberto, Yep. Ken PS Thanks for the stimulating conversation.
Alberto, >> I don't know what you mean by MOW's. Movies Of the Week — TV movies. Pete
Ken, "If you work with an editor that fights you every step of the way – screws up your best efforts and trashes your vision – do you think that might affect your work?.." I am an editor!!! "On the other hand – Avid will do what suits them commercially.…
>>As for Mr Dean's intentions, no comment until I hear him confirm your views.
>>For saying this, I got 'flamed'.
Brandon, "you have the freedom to say what ever you want, but you also have the responsibility to DEAL with the consequences of what you say. You sound like you're whining…" I am very happy to deal with the consequences of my statements, but I'm not happy to be told…

Chris, I think many have misunderstood me and it's days that I try to make myself clear. It all set off from me saying that I would not favour Avid on Windows, to the point of refusing to work on any such machine. Ok, strong views but I was just…
Platform Wars
Message #2599
Yes true, but for the majority of Mac users I know, and I am not making this up, they don't want to know about getting even near other platforms, and they didn't buy the Mac because it could read and write Ms-Dos files. In fact, most of them bought it…
Alberto – Actually that's part of the point. The tool and the artist have to be compatible. Anyone out there read any of the "Inner Game…" books? They explore the differences that very minute changes in mental attitude make to performance in sports and music. Does anyone think that this…
Oh….Alberto, >>you want to sound like you read all the thread so far, but from the points you raise it sounds to me that you haven't.>Someone didn't like what I said. Talk about freedom of speech. Yes, you have the freedom to say what ever you want, but you also…
Ken, anyone chooses the tool he is most comfortable with. Anything wrong about that? Alberto

Brandon, you want to sound like you read all the thread so far, but from the points you raise it sounds to me that you haven't. Either that, or I haven't made myself clear. Well if that's the case, apologies to everybody, I am an Italian writing from Italy after…
Ken: >The next computer I buy may be a Mac or it may be a PC(IBM) – or it may be a SGI – in your hearts you know the point: it's just a tool.< Exactly! Tim

Stephen: >But for the rest of us payments are plummetting.< Really? That's interesting–sad, but interesting. I'm seeing more original documentaries than ever on cable these days, so I assumed (wrongly, it appears) that business for documentarians was doing better… >And with CPB under fire it will be getting even worse.<…

To Al and All. Just wanted to tell everyone how thankful I am that Apple invented the MacIntosh and promoted the GUI – and has been successful at it. Which in turn forced the PC world to reconcile it's interface with people. If not for this – 85% of us…

interesting coffee shops
Message #2427
One of the best places to get a cup o' joe and a good read is Border's Books in Bridgewater, NJ. A half dozen coffees and various expresso concoctions along with pastries etc. All served up in a solid bookstore with a large magazine selection and out-of-town newspaper rack. Becoming…

Some of our current favorites include Running With Scissors, Rorschach Test (both played Music…

Welcome to another DC longtimer. I arrived in 73, intending to stay a year or two, then spent (or mis-spent) the next two decades at ABC. I am now working with and fairly familiar with the new N/L formats as well as some of the hybrid types. I haven't worked…
Daniel, It's been too long ago (25 years). I don't remember the guy's name who ran the station, we just called him "Sarge". I was a high school student, a Navy dependent, at a Marine Air Station when the Marines were not allowed to have their dependents overseas (because of…
