I have an observation of sorts to make here. You know in the funny episode where Barney is singing into that magic mike that makes his voice sound like the Voice of God? Well, listen closely in the epilogue to the dialogue. Barney and Andy are talking and Barney is saying how he couldn't believe how different his voice sounded. Andy is still trying to keep up the pretense that it was actually Barney's own voice singing, and said something to the effect like, "Have you ever heard yourself speak on a telephone?" Barney answers, "Yeah." "Well, you can hardly believe it's your own voice," Andy assures him. Now, my little observation is this: in those days no one could use a phone to hear himself speak. So do you think Andy SHOULD have said tape recorder? Personally, I have always considered this a minor mistake that just wasn't caught, and Andy was supposed to have said tape recorder. But maybe the script actually read "telephone" and no one noticed the inaccuracy of this statement--highly unlikely at the time, it seems to me since telephones were not at all the equipment we have today. But I don't know. And therein lies the question. Lydia
