A friend of mine who was in a barber shop quartet used to always announce that
the next number would be a song called "I Was  ngaged to a Girl With a Wooden
Leg, But We Had to Break It Off."

This is preposterous. While the light may LEAVE at that velocity, there is
no physical constraint on the speed of darkness. What you are missing here is
that there is a transient vacuum between the time the light leaves (or enters)
a space, and the time the darkness enters (or leaves) that same space. What
is needed is careful measurement of the speed of darkness in a vacuum. I 
believe future generations will figure this out. No doubt, there is a "photonic
boom" involved, which is the underlying principle of the photon torpedos in
Star Trek. 

You fool.

Posthumously yours,

Mike

The standard VHS tape in the US is (still) the T-120, which is just
fractionally shorter than an E-180. The T-160 is pretty much the same
as an E-240. Using standard play, PAL or SECAM formatted VHS will give
you approximately 50% more, despite the higher resolution.

PAL/SECAM LP are almost identical to NTSC SLP. A T-120 will give you
360 minutes in NTSC SLP; an E-180 will give you 360 minutes in
PAL/SECAM LP.

The question here is not the resolution, it's the state of the art at
the time when the standard was developed. Does anybody use NTSC SP for
home recording?--
