In memory of those we lost in the past years... this dedication is to you, the eccentrics, the free thinkers, people who made a difference in our lives both in the real world and on the net.Thank you for the memories.

1977? I was born then.I remember when no one had more than one tv.
Oh I used to hate black and white tv. Things just don't look right. I remember when I was growing up a friend of mine had black and white tv and I refused to watch it, heh.The first tv I remember our family having was a big coloured one which you had to turn the dial on to change channels. And we had three channels, 2, 7 and 9.

TV stations went off the air in the middle of the night
Quote from: parts on May 03, 2011, 06:01:55 PMTV stations went off the air in the middle of the night YES! I'd forgotten that! Even when I first had cable in 1988/89, I remember certain stations would just show a test pattern in the wee hours of the morning, or they'd show hours of infomercials. I miss the late 80s, they were dorky but fun.
