Well, it's been since January since I've posted this, so I guess
it's about time I give you my current Mupp-ography.  This time,
unlike the past couple times I posted this, I'm including all the
Muppet Show and Fraggle Rock episodes -- which I had been making
separte postings.  Also, I've included a brief version of the
dinosaur episode listing that has appeared in alt.tv.dinosaurs.

Without (much) further ado (just my .signature) here it is:

This list is a "Mupp-ography."  Theses are all the occurances I can
document of muppets.  Much of this information was compiled by myself
(Bill Sherman) some of which actually originated in the book "Of Muppets &
Men: The Makeing of the Muppet Show."  I gathered more information just
by taping and archiving several shows.  After posting my original list
to usenet, I received several more pieces of information from the readers
of this group, and those people are listed here:
