    On the Emmys:
    Well, the cast just got awards for voiceovers.  A mere crust of
bread thrown to the servants, maybe, but at least it's something.  And
whoever-it-was, the Claymation guy, who won the Best Animation award,
mentioned "The Simpsons" as one of the shows which should have received
recognition.
 
    On Lisa's Great Books:
    That one author's name you couldn't get was Herman Melville.  The
title I didn't get  --  but I think the joke was that all the books named
are pretty esoteric to most people, even English majors (I was an English
major, briefly, and Ive never read any of those books, and haven't heard
of half of them.)
    Case in point: Milton's _Paradise Regained_ is obscure; most people
think of _Paradise Lost_ when thinking of Milton.  (My sole knowledge of
_Paradise Regained_ comes from a hoary old joke: "Milton wrote _Paradise
Lost_; then his wife died, and he wrote _Paradise Regained_.")

All that dribbeling with Summer time (Daylight Saving time) is perfectly
correct but just wait until the period in the fall and spring when the brits
(and Americans) decide to switch between winter and summer time at a
different time than the rest of Europe. All in gooood British tradition of
keeping aside from the rest of the world.

Then for awhile (two weeks) The Simpsons will be on at 18.30 *CET*

Don't expect too much from "The Simpsons" on your surround sound system.
Some of the music comes out of the surround channel but that's about it.

TV surround sound is generally good enough to enjoy.  "Twin Peaks" had
particularly good surround sound material.  "Star Trek (TNG)" will
surround you at times but they could do more with it.

While I thought there were a few nice moments (Lisa's hotel joke in
Monopoly, for example) and some occasionally clever dialogue, this
episode felt flat to me (then again, it seems like I was the only one
who loved the Spinal Tap episode;-).  Portions of the plot came off 
non-characteristic and forced (the awards ceremony), and the ending
was an obvious set-up for a third DeVito appearance...not to mention
attempting to get the audience to think "Maggie's first words?" in
a too-predictible fashion (although I was pleased with more Maggie). 
I  probably need to watch it again on videotape, but as a whole, the episode
appeared to attempt too much but accomplished too little.

Also...obvious error:  the couch was broken, yet in the final scene,
the couch stands good-as-new behind Homer's new chair.  Was there 
something I missed, or is this an animation goof?

Yes, but the "Damnit! I said full power!" line is not from 2001.  Also the way

Water vapor (however you spell it) is a colorless gas.  Warm, moist air
has a lot of water vapor in it.  When it meets cold air or a cold
surface, the water tend to condense into liquid droplets, hence it is no
longer vapor.  Steam, fog, clouds, and "sweat" on a cold glass of water
(but not smoke) are all examples of this.  I would call it steam coming
from the cooling towers.

"Steam" is usually reserved for water vapour from boiling water.  To call
the stuff coming out of a cooling tower "steam" is to (a) imply that it has
a temperature greater or equal to boiling, and (b) equate it somehow with 
the steam used in the plant to generate electricity.

I would call it "condensed water vapour" (yes, "condensed" missing from 
first post) or, at the very most, fog.

Of course, since we're talking about a cooling tower somewhere in America,
I suppose it's not really colourless vapour, but colorless vapor.

I'm not an English major (nor do I play one on tv), but I am a
Melville fan.  Typee is quite a fine book, a first person narrative
about experiences with polynesian natives after jumping ship in the
South Seas.  There's a fascinating description of various ways of
preparing breadfruit.  Typee also has the advantage of being only
about 100 pages long.  It was Melville's first book, and a popular
success, and though it's based on his own experience, it's not clear
just how much is fact and how much invented.  Sort of an early
docu-drama.

Omoo is the sequel to Typee, and it's not quite as good.  I kind of
wondered why Lisa referred to "Melville's twin classics Omoo and
Typee" since the natural order is the other way...  They certainly do
show up quite a but in crossword puzzles!

I'd also like to put in a word for Paradise Regained.  It's quite
wonderful.  Probably my favorite poem about the life of Christ :-).
It centers on the temptations in the desert.  Pleasant to see our old
friend, the Devil, again.
