Yup, I went to the website the other day because I was curious about the project... Interesting that the folks are from the UK... According to the post here: http://somelocalloser.blogspot.com/2011/07/hbr-cd-75-wheeling-west-virginia.html that website isn't actually related to the other hillbilly researcher... | |

thx, ndbob. sappy, but true: it warms my heart that even in this day and age (internets, tv and computer screens every 2 seconds) when I showed the Wizard of Oz to my then-6 year old son he was blown away by the transition to color and loved the movie | |
