If you have a story or opinion about "Space Odyssey", please post your thoughts in the Retrospect page.

"2001" TV/Movie Alert:
Local "2001" fan Terry Boblet suspects that Bank of America is using the Big Brother (Monolithic banks) theme in their latest commercials. And perhaps I can make an appearance on this commercial or a likeness of me is in one of their commercials. I assure you, I didn’t do any commercial for anyone.

Mike Jackson, HAL Screensaver:
He is still looking for a new server for his popular free product site but in the meantime, you can access Mike's screensaver at http://mentalfoto.tripod.com/screensaver/index.html

If you have "2001/2010" news to report to the World Tonight, please send them to me! I’m also looking for pictures from the Tech Museum to share on my website if you were there last year. Until then…

See you next Wednesday (Frank).
