I want say that I am sorry in passing along some bummer information.

When I called my mother-in-law and talked with her, I mis-understood
what she said about the 18 month hiatus.  I understood it to be that
is what happened and not a cancellation and that the hiatus was cancelled.

Well, now I admit that I was wrong.  I enjoy the Dr too much to pass
along bad information.  

I did call the BBC and the duty office.  As of 4:55 pm, 3/7/85, London time,
the show is still on hiatus for 18 months.  I also registered my complaint.
The phone number given by Jamie Green had a minor error, at least for my
part of the country.  Do not dial the 1 before dialing the rest of the
number.  011-411-743-8000 will do just fine.

I guess that it is time now to do some letter writing.  Nicolet Instrument
sponsors and IBM-PC bulletin board, that I am the SYSOP of.  It is the
official Madison area Dr. Who Bulletin Board.  All of the information that
I am receiving from the net is being relayed to the BBS.  There are a lot
of Dr. Who fans on the BBS.

PS: Everyone likes to leave a quote from the Doctor, but I can't remember
the quote that Peri says to the Doctor and what his reply is.  But, I will
review the tape "Attack Of The Cybermen" and tell it another time.
