   I watched "Being From Another Planet" last night and looked for him as   
   "Reporter".  Since the movie was made 25 years ago, I didn't recognize him   
   or his voice.  My best guess is that he was the reporter that gave the TV   
   broadcast of the news of the press conference by the campus president (James   
   Karen).  The president is sitting on the couch trying to relax with a drink   
   and listening to the report (and Crow says: "I gotta get cable".)   
      
   Tom Carberry (#45505, and even they acknowledge that Castle of Fu Manchu is   
   as bad as this movie)
