I never was a big fan of Battlezone, though interestingly it's now part of my son's Nintendo DS Atari Classic game cartridge, along with Dig Dug and some others. I'll be sure and check out your site - what I wouldn't give to have an old StarGate or Tempest in my house ;) Barry Steve,

Years later I developed an interest in arcade game collecting and acquired a special edition of the atari game battlezone. I was surprised and intrigued to find 1982 expo tokens inside the cabinet in places unseen for many years. This explained the unusual version of this game which has side art, when no other compact version of this game has been found to have art. I'm hoping someone out there has photos of the expo gameroom and with luck this game will be in one of them. arcadetreasure.com I attended the fair and had a great time.

We got the red skelton holiday collection and after we watch the first part,there is more on that tape. It tells us to press highlight to get more and it does not work. Do you know what else we can do. Thanks Joan I just wanted to know if you can help me. We got the red skelton holiday collection and after we watch the first part,there is more on that tape.

I did not use Impersonating or copying, because they are not words I would use after reading your post, I was 9 during that broadcast and can still remember it. It is sad, to remember I didnt think that this was not needed to be said on his show that night. I was too young to realize the real devestation going on in the country. Now, today, we are seeing the aftermath of Free Love and New Age thinking. It is still riping the virtues of our country apart. Maybe the 70's generation can piece this country back together now that the 60's generation is retiring. God Bless You and Your Act Mr Zinn, I think your honoroing Mr Skelton with your act is wonderful.

God Bless You and Your Act
