   On a more serious note, I read on Fido (!) that guys in the Minneapolis area are putting ads on local papers looking for KTMA episodes. The theory being that maybe a MiSTie has the missing shows on tape and doesn't have access to a computer, and hence doesn't know about the desperate souls across the country. I'll keep my eyes open for anything, but the Fidoers usually seem less informed than the people here, we'll see.
