    Great show...it's available to watch on one of the free streaming services. If you're interested, I'll figure out which one (I think I know) and post it here.

    Predicted the future about as well as could be done without being able to forecast the current IT technology. I rate it in the same catagory as:

    Ayn Rand - Atlas Schrugged
    George Orwell - 1984
    Aldous Huxley - Brave New World
    John Carpenter - They Live
