We thought we were watching a live concert in a distant stadium. We had no idea the crowd roar was a synthesizer loop. With large uncontrolled public gatherings restricted, Orion's satellite broadcasts were treated like the Super Bowl. It was a collective, beautiful illusion. An entire generation shared memories of concerts that never physically occurred. -- === Bill Dubois === Dept of Electrical Engineering, MindSpring Enterprises "5 sigma is a discovery. 7 is a question."
