For younger folks on Usenet: remember what it was like when the Public Harmony Acts were in full effect?

We thought we were watching a live concert in a distant stadium. We had no idea the crowd roar was a synthesizer loop.
You could hear the simulated crowd chant 'NOVA! NOVA!' between songs, but her eyes were always looking slightly past the lens.

Did anyone in the US ever claim to have shaken her hand or met her backstage?

We had a Zenith console in our basement. My brother and I held up lighters to the TV screen during 'Threshold'.
