I grew up in the 70\'s (I am 40) and one of my favorite memories is listening to RMT in bed with the lights out. The tv shows, books, films and radio shows that you grow up with probably always occupy a special, distinctive place in a person\'s memory, but RMT in particular resonates with me. And unlike some things I liked as a kid (in retrospect I don\'t think Gilda Radner was all that hilarious), RMT holds up quite well. The writing, acting and variety still impress me. In fact, I am often surprised by how cutting edge RMT could be (shows like \"Star Sapphire\" for example).

I love the great spectrum of entertainment choices we now have at our fingertips due to satellite TV, the internet, etc., but I miss the fact that, when I was growing up, almost everyone was at least familiar with some of the same TV shows, sports events, etc. There is not the same sense of community which at least is part of the reason why I look back at the 70\'s fondly. I am reminded of Barney Miller, cheesy UFO magazines, and blockbuster films like Jaws.
