Ha! I've made it to week two! This week's episode is Science and Technology.

I've tried a new type of compression, since the last one gave me grief. This didn't come without problems: there's some odd colour that flares up in the lower left corner. Some scenes are oddly compressed, like the opening shot of Rick right before Nan-Cy's first on screen bit. I don't think these are too noticeable. Look, my plan was to get the episodes out there, not to provide DVD-quality video. It's on YOUTUBE for Heaven's sake!

Ahem. I will look into improving this for next week. For some reason, the audio liked knocking out on high quality video all weekend... and then I wasted time on this, but I GOT NEW PANTS!

From the episode guide:
395210 SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY AIRDATE: DECEMBER 6/90
Commander Rick debates the impact science and technology are having on society with science fiction writers Gregory Benford (PhD, Physics), Robert Sawyer (computer programmer), Jack Womack (neo-Luddite) and fellow techno-peasant Spider Robinson. Rick attempts to control the technology onboard his communications satellite Reality One by wiring together a "pow-R glove" -- with hilarious results!


Translation: pow-R glove = messy interview order.
