I like the guy with the hat. A modern Van Helsing on the hunt!

Holy cow, what a flashback!

Scary part is that we still a computer and floppies like that.

Good comparison, Richard. Yeah, everyone in this video seems to be enjoying the attack.

G.B., We have one in the corner of the basement. Like a dinosaur waiting for the museum.

Classic! I actually remember that although it was a few years before I was at MIT. Yeah, it could have been worse. Those glasses, hat and beard! He's a geezer.

I think you might like the noir book I reviewed on my blog, The Goldfinch.

Happy New Year!
