   	Oh, that sounds neat.  Castle of Fu Manchu is a rare episode   
   that I've only actually seen at conventions -- it as Cosmic Princess,   
   I think.  Whatever was the Space: 1999 compilation.   
      
   	As you might expect, I haven't seen it un-MiSTed at all, so   
   I'm looking forward to ... well, I suppose I need to set up one of   
   those nagging reminders from the online sources.  I'm sure to forget   
   it without help.  I had the same problem with The Wild, Wild Planet,   
   which I left a reminder for so far ahead of time that by the time I   
   got the e-mail reminder I forgot why I ever wanted to see the movie.   
   Then I did see the movie, and remembered why I forgot the movie.   
   But it was a good kind of bad.
