[Videolib] Gary in his PJ's

Aren't you the least bit curious about what Gary wear's for PJ's?

Personally I think a long nightshirt with cap, a la Scrooge (NOT that Gary in 
anyway resembles Scrooge!)

Dr Denton's?   With feet?   Bunny pajamas like Ralphie in "A Christmas Story"?

John Rait at the end of "Pajama Game", or Doris Day"  (Doris wearing only the 
top, Rait wearing the bottoms.

Or the boy in Sendak's "In the Night Kitchen"?

(Just remember Gary, you started it!)

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues

The primary focus of the discussion supported by this list will be on video 
collection, access, and use. Examples of discussion topics include: copyright 
and intellectual property issues; evaluations of materials; collection 
development policy issues; selection methodology; acquisition concerns 
(locating hard-to-find materials, library/vendor relations, etc.), issues 
related to evolving video technologies and libraries. Discussions regarding 
video hardware and the specifics of video technology are not generally 
encouraged. Discussions which are merely recreational in nature are also firmly 
discouraged Such discussions include protracted conversations regarding 
favorite films, movie trivia, and fan correspondence.

VIDEONEWS is an electronic clearinghouse for information about new services, 
products, resources, and programs of interest to video librarians and 
archivists, educators, and others involved in the selection, acquisition, 
programming, and preservation of video materials in non-profit settings. The

on the subject of "Martyrdom and Noble Death in Judaism and Christianity."
She indicates that she found negligible options last time. She is

ancient societies--like the ancient Near East, Greece and Rome,  (2)
martyrdom traditions in literature and world religions, (3) and Christian
