   You know, as an English major, I kind of resent you CS types invading
my turf.
   Especially when I knew exactly what he meant by Nemo: that
glass-nosed submarine was _the_ coolest thing ever shown on my parents'
TV. (Which, to keep this Rescue-related, used a four-foot lens assembly
strapped to the front of an ordinary 19" color TV to project the picture
on the wall. The TV still runs, but I haven't seen that big black
plastic lens-tube-thing in a long time. Anyway, this was awfully cool
in, oh, the late 1970s, when every other large-screen TV I ever saw
before or since was a big box with three -- R, G, and B -- projectors.
It even came with a table on casters that tilted back to allow you to
aim the tube up at the wall, keystoning be damned.)
