Message<lol> Kim. Maybe it's a timewarp thing: the authors wrote the book in 1949 which inspired the producers to produce a popular television show some fifty years later. Which... but you get the point. On a similar note, maybe if the burocrats can't find the paper that says you are blind you'll get vision.

Hi, can you just imagine the looks of consternation on the authors' faces to discover, much to their surprise, that their book was copyrighted and published long before The Antiques Road Show was a gleam in their eyes?

Bob, You and I should be antiques on the Road Show because this almost predates me too. I'm laughing and laughing.

I found the following entry in the new books list and just had to share it: "Antiques Roadshow Behind the Scenes by Mark L Walberg Marsha Bemko An all-access pass to America's first (and favorite) reality television program -- boasting over ten million viewers each week -- Antiques Roadshow! Copyright: 1949" With a copyright date of 1949, this television show predates "the honeymooners", "beat the clock", and the Milton Burl show. In fact it predates the first Eisenhower administration. It almost predates television. Heck it almost predates me. Thanks, Bob A learning experience is one of those things that says, 'You know that thing you just did? Don't do that.' Douglas Adams
