Hi Carol, I tried Crane's on the web and could not locate it. I even checked the local Tower Video with the same results. The clerk called their "Hot Line" with no results.

I hope that comes to fruition because I feel that you can't change history by closing your eyes. I work for an ABC/Disney tv station here in Philly and you would think I would have an inside line on this stuff, but they are as closed lipped on this as the secret recipe of Coka Cola!

I agree with you on that!! I have a actual time counter VCR, and it counts 10 minutes of 'previews' before the movie starts, and that's not just Disney that does it, it most companies, I guess they do that because more people will rent the movie from the Video store than the number of people that buy the tape..
