Yes I remember those days. Tele was somewhat innocent then. Matt Dillon (Gunsmoke) and Clint Eastwood (Wagon Train) convinced me that the entire west looked like monument valley and had no color. LOL I remember that news was factual journalism and not propaganda and entertainment. Although these were also the days that we still had air raid sirens blaring for civil defense drills and duck & cover nuclear anihilation practices in kindergarten and 1st grade. Yes I don't think I've completely recovered from that.

I have to laugh when the article touted two way TV and multiple camera angles as future TV features! Those have been promised since the 1938 and 1968 world fairs. They do not fail for technical reasons, but for financial. Viewers are not willing to pay the exhortationary fees programmers want to charge for such services. TV will become ever more interactive though, not because of TV manufacturers or programmers, but because PCs are now our entertainment centers , replacing TVs and stereos. Good for flexibility, bad for ease of use.
