Hulu+ has the originals too...
Huh, learn something new everyday...but probably still missing quite a few episodes(since I have done the research and it saddens me that I'll never see it from the beginning in it's entirety...unless someone has them somehow or has somehow reproduced them which wouldn't surprise me if it ever happened :roll: )
If they keep discovering more and more footage from Metropolis, I wouldn't assume Dr Who is lost just yet.

Heeey, I just came back from the Netherlands :D

It was a great trip! Lots of cycling, friends from all over Europe and so many activities I didn't have any time to write (The fact that we often stayed until 5AM partying may also have something to do with it).

It's a really cool country, if I could I would import the cities wholesale and live forever in them :lol:

I know a lot of people who have visited Germany, and none of them didn't have a good time.

Just read this article about 3 Fan Communities That Hate Their Own Members

I found it to be quite interesting and poignant. Even though they make the assumption that the majority of people behave like this, when in reality it is just the vocal majority, it still hits on a really important note about people and their hobbies. This quote in particular is something I find to be a very interesting that states:
many people in the comic book community are unable to separate themselves from their favorite characters or understand that the specific connection they feel to a particular character or storyline is literally the same personal connection that every single other fan feels. It's like the feeling you get when listening to a favorite album; it takes you to a specific time and place in your life, and the experience can be almost religious. But the thing is, every other comic fan has that exact same connection. Their fan worship is but one in a sea of millions. So why is any one person's idea of what is cool for Batman any more or less correct than anyone else's? (Unless you are Joel Schumacher, in which case your concept of Batman is so incorrect that it stabs straight through the X-axis of every "Batman Correctness" graph like a dagger of spiteful hatred.)

I was stationed in Vilseck back in the day. It's a wonderful country. For being drunk most of the time, I sure have lots of memories.
