Some bothersome half-memories from my childhood:

	What was the name of that outer space guy
	who came to Bedrock and only Fred and
	Barney could see him?

	Why did Barney's voice change in the later
	Flintstones episodes?

	Does anyone remember any interesting details
	about a show called "Batfink"? He was a
	crime-fighting bat who would constantly
	say "Your bullets cannot harm me. My wings
	are like a shield of steel!"  I think one
	of his enemies was Hugo-a-go-go.

	What about Courageous Cat?  The first time
	I knowingly heard the theme to Peter Gunn
	(Which was not on the Peter Gunn show. I've
	never seen it. Too young, I guess...) I thought
	"Gee...that's the theme from Courageous  Cat!"
	Was it? 

	And then there's this faint but persistant
	vision of a TV show (or maybe a portion of
	one) which came on in the N.Y. City area
	at about 4:00 pm weekdays in 1966 or so
	and had a man dancing on a stage wearing
	glasses that, instead of lenses, had two
	long toilet-paper-tube-like tubes...
	Did this really happen...? Or was there
	too much phis-o-hex in my bathwater?

Any information about the above stuff will end
years of bewonderment.

Thanks a bunch,
