I remember seeing Annie       Nightingale's "Old Grey Whistle Test" on BBC2 in the mid-70s and that       there were a lot of flicker-cut videos shown on that. Besides, wasn't       that time also the high-water mark for viciously bright strobe-lighting       in discos?                     --       martin@ | Martin Gregorie       gregorie. | Essex, UK       org |              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
