The error on "Poe's pendulum" was an amazing revelation behind the curtains. Is that episode one of the ones that disappeared into the ether, or has it been seen in reruns? I don't ever recall seeing that.

I still wish the show would come back.
If the pilot taped next month for GSN's Pyramid goes well, I'd hope they'd consider having "New York Times columnist Dick Cavett" on as a player during summer series recordings. Put him against Betty White for a week. That would be fun.

ETA: I learned an important lesson yesterday. Make sure you know how many pages an article takes before you just hit "print". There were 27 pages, and only 2-6 had any part of the article itself.
