   I remember the kit that you could buy that included a clear plastic screen protector that allowed you to draw on to allow interactivity with a kids show. I can’t remember which TV was associated with the kit.

     Bob,
     My friend Tony remembered that show was called Winky Dink. I never heard of it. He grew up in New Jersey so maybe it was local for you both as you were in New York.

       Bob,
       That was quite the marketing, selling those kits. I did get a chuckle when parents complained their kids were drawing right on the screen. Watching the program brings back the memory of black and white TV.

   Nope, … hitting the answer button .25sec after the first note of the Finale of the William Tell. The quizmaster was not pleased.

     minicapt,
     I too would probably only need around the same amount of time to identify The William Tell Overture.
