Michael, I saw the "Disappearing stuff in the Bermuda Triangle" commercial on CNN this am during a Zipper-gate rehash... Lots of folks would likely be tuned in at that time, just before the pre-game programs began on the other channels. I will have to watch it again as it caught me by surprise, I remember a guy with a moustache inside an airliner and a bunch of different colored Zip disks and then things and people began "disappearing around him", but his "stuff" was safe on his trusty Zip disk as a closeup showed him placing it in his pocket and there was some mention before this about flying over the "Bermuda Triangle" where everything just disappears. You had to pay attention to what this was all about tho... and then at the end they zoom the lens up to the cockpit where there are now two empty seats! Just what was the real message, "If you put your stuff on a Zip disk to save it as you fly over the Bermuda Triangle, it ain't gonna matter much, because the pilot and co-pilot are gone and we're gonna crash" So much for the great message from the new commercial! Buy IOM and your gonna crash and burn!! %^) Mel... looking forward to the other new commercials to see what their basic messages are...
