Berkeley Lines: 16 Yeah. British Airways has scored a neat coup - they have the TWO best currently running commercials right now. This one, very arty type, and the takeoff of Close Encounters ("Roger, Manhattan, you are clear for landing." .. "This is Manhattan, descending to 2000 feet" .. etc) - you can tell what they are emulating by the crashing chord at touchdown. Of course, the first time I saw the second one, I thought \\Cities in Flight//, but, alas, spindizzies were nowhere to be found. I will be severely disappointed if neither of these commercials make it to the Clio award finals. ____ Bill Laubenheimer ___ / \ ___ UC-Berkeley Computer Science / \ | o o | / \ ucbvax!wildbill ------+++----------()----------+++------ ...Killjoy was here!
