From what you've been saying, it sounds like Don B. is a real stickler for the
rules.

Unfortunately, I purchased the novel which completely messed up the body/mind
rule, which really surprised me.  I would have thought Belisario would have
really looked the book over before finally okaying it.  

Are the QL novels going to continue?  If there were better writers, and there
was better attention to detail, I'd probably buy them.

I'll admit there were some good parts to the novel, but I think the writer was
taking too much into her hands by developing the characters back at the
mountain.  I don't think Tina can be brilliant, but a ditz at the same time,
and what the heck happened to Donna? (Sam's wife?)

Who knows, maybe I'm just investigating this too closely.

Speculation:  Sam's going to leap into Ziggy.  Or some other AI.  The
animated landscape will be a computer representation of reality that
this AI exists within--like FISE in James Hogan's "The Two Faces of
Tomorrow", or like Gibson's cyberspace, or like the unexplained "grid"
in TRON.

The question this raises is whether Al would be projected inside the
computer, along with Sam, or outside it, staring at the console.

Kent:

I work for a company here in Toronto, whos sister company was
Colorization Inc. The series McHales Navy was slated to be Colorized,
but the company that owned the rights to the show went under half way
through the process. So... only about half of the shows were done.
Now I don't know if anyone picked up where we left off or not, but as
far as I know half of them are still only available in B&W.

I was one of the original people who helped develop the original
Colorization process. It was a good idea that was TERRIBLY abused for
all the wrong reasons. Colorizing old TV series like McHales, was a good
idea to give them new life. But Colorizing Casablanca (which we did NOT
do) was not a good idea. As a fan of old TV series, I prefer them in
black and white. But if my choice was seing them Colorized or not at
all, I choose Colorized.

And the good news is.... Colorization is no more. We closed the company
about a year ago. However there are still several other around.

I do not have an episode guide I can E-mail to you, but if you send me
your address, I will see if I have an old fashioned paper copy that I
can send you. I'm not sure if there is still one around, but I will
check.

This might contain some VERY mild spoilers for an upcoming episode, in case
you care....




I live in Bellingham, WA, which is not too far from Roslyn, WA, which
is the real-life locale that pretends to be Ciclely AK for the cameras.
Yesterdays newspaper (Thurs OCt 8 Bellingham Herald) had a lengthy
article about students from Ferndale High School (a local school) band
and a local DIxieland group called the Bathtub GIn Party Band, who 
were hired for an upcoming episode of Northern Exposure.  

The article, by reporter Gail Stark, says the bands are part of a
parade which (in the show) is part of the Native American's
traditional Thanksgiving celebration of the dead.  Therefore all
the marching musicians are wearing masks (one of them is shown
in a skeleton mask).

In case you're interested, they were each paid $59.71 for a days work.

And of course, they all might get edited out before November 23, when
the episode is due to be shown.
