[QuadList] Vintage WSAZ-TV video 1985

[David C. Crosthwait]

Dennis,

That must have been great to see. One of my very first VHS recordings,  
made with my $1,000 RCA model 600 deck (1979 money) was Letterman's  
last daytime shows. I went on to record (off air) many other Letterman  
nighttime shows. Who could forget "Elevator Races" w/Bob Costas, the  
show from the office when the A/C was off on a hot winter day (I think  
Terri Garr was a guest, who took a shower in the office stall at the  
closing), and the "360" show, which was a slow, continuing ADO type  
rotation of the entire program as it was airing, with triumphant  
"completion" of the full "Z" at show closing.

You guys had a lot more fun there in the hallways etc. than we did.

David
