Don't worry David, we'll give it the "Big Freeze".
  
Ken, I, too, have run into younger folks who wouldn't recognize Barney Fife 
from Max Klinger.  Reminds me of the time about 15 years ago, our extended 
family was sitting around at my mother's home.  Some of us were talking about 
The Ed Sullivan Show and some of the stranger guests that would appear (Don't 
know about you, but I haven't seen a good plate spinner in years).  One of my 
niece's, in her mid 20's at the time, wanted to know who Ed Sullivan was.  When 
I told her about him and the show, she asked, "What did he do?".  I told her 
that he secured a lot of great acts for the show as well as emceeing the show 
and introducing the acts.  She asked again, "Was he a singer or comedian, what 
was his talent".  When I told her he just introduced the acts on the show, she 
couldn't believe someone like that could get their own show.  Then she stated 
that it must have not been on the air very long if he couldn't do anything.  
  
Are we really that old?!?!?!?!?!?!
