It was the same for movies, too, like THX 1138 and Tron. In the first, they had a coputer running everyhing EXCEPT the humans still had to put the nuclear power cells into the braincases! And Tron, that was just a big screen video game. It’s a flaw inherent in the imagination, I believe. It was the same for movies, too, like THX 1138 and Tron.

I've played that game. I've beat that game. I played that on my Atari 800 ... What was it called again? Star Raiders? -goes to look- Yup! Star Raiders (TM) I can't believe I still have the cartridge ... I'd say they took a screen shot of it, but Atari's don't have that feature and that was probably made before screen shots were an option. Oh, man! I’ve played that game. I’ve beat that game.

Finally got to the internet, and I'm glad to see you're keeping the laughs going. Hope the Facemaker is going well, now it's time to see what's been going on with the old original app updates. Take care, dude, hope to be on more often. Hi Jeff, it’s been awhile. Finally got to the internet, and I’m glad to see you’re keeping the laughs going.
