There was a meeting I recall with Butterfield my Dad and Billy had.. And a few days later my father came home with c64 and white 1541. It was awesome, my parents were both teachers and my father dragged a pet home for the summer and we watched bits and bytes together and programmed stuff, eating pizza and making jokes about billy and the hilarious house of frighten stein. He was a cool guy. He was indeed; lots of laughs and clowning between takes (and occasionally during, to the consternation of the director and producer ;-) And Butterfield was of course also a cool guy, albeit in a different way. Good times... I assume that he-who-will-remain-unnamed who is making the DVDs when he has time will sooner or later get in touch with those who are asking about them.
