And just what would you think Mr. Gates (aka, "Mr. Squeaky
Clean") might need such a place for? Is this better than the
hotels in town? <GG>

Maybe for the atmosphere: the facility was originally built for the Carmalite nuns.

Definitely the atmosphere, not to mention with those ears, he sort of
looks like a Carmelite nun <GG>

And look what happened to them. How many of them have you seen
around lately? <GG>

Sure: down here we have them appearing in Geico (insurance) commercials. And they (te cavemen, not the insurance company!) even had their own TV show -- for about three episodes, IIRC.

I have seen those caveman commericals (we are your neighbour,
remember... we get many American stations <G>) and I abhor them.
Not only are they offensive in general, the are offensive to me intellectually. Whenever they come on, I automatically switch to
another station until I figure they are finished...

Wasn't sure if you had seen them. Some (a very small handful,
more from the onset of the campaign) are 'interesting'. I'll admit to watching the spinoff "Caveman Show" -- whatever it was called -- mainly because was curious how they could integrate the caveman into the modern
world. Obviously not very well as the show lasted only three, maybe
four shows.

First show - sets down the concept. Expect roughness. Mediocre response
from me.

Second show. Expecting better as now they can concentrate on a plot
after getting the setup done in the first show. ...Well, that was a
waste of 23 minutes (skip through the commercials).

Third show -- things aren't getting better. Delete from recording list.
Not sure if it aired past then.

I am afraid that I didn't even find the first "caveman" commercials in
the least interesting. But then, truth be told, I don't find a lot of commercials interesting. One of the best uses for a DVR is to be able to

True: love to 'Z' it! And that comment will need translation: using
MythDora or Mythbuntu (maybe any MythTV-based system) on can press the Z
key to skip commercials. Not just one, but the much the whole set of

<snicker> Quite frankly if it wasn't for the commercials we probably
would have not watched the show at all. Not that we're a big fan of the caveman commercials; was more the hype of the new show and how they
basically expand a 30- or 60-second commercial into a 23-minute show.
We were thinking it was going to be something alongt he lines of _The
Beverley Hillbillies_: caveman familiy discovered, gets moved to the
city, laugh with them and at them as they learn a green VW Beetle is not
a gigantic tortise! <Cue laugh track!>
