Rules for submitting comments:
1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.
2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.
3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.
4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.

ReplyDeleteWow! You found "The Tunnel"! I haven't seen this since I was a kid.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I didn't know it was called the Transatlantic Tunnel.
I'm going to wait until I can sit back and watch the whole works, I still remember the cool digging machines.
Thanks for posting this one!
Hurrah indeed

Cheesecloth? Don't knock it. It worked on Stingray.
ReplyDeleteSince this is set in the far future of the 1940s, vidiphones aren't such a strange concept.
ReplyDeleteWhat could keep us from having such things? It would take something on the order of a mustachioed madman to screw up our glistening streamlined future, and that's pretty unlikely, right?
Wow, Tatra car at 17:55! Now that says future
ReplyDeleteOk, I'll comment no more until I see the whole thing
