Later, in season 1 and even 2, the lighting is consistent at any angle. The wall panels were always consistently lit from any camera angle, making me think if it were banks of fluorescent lights, they had to be surrounded by large amounts of reflecting material (tin foil like) to make the lighting appear congruent in the panel.

No, actually this is our list and not mine. I will not dictate content/membership. There are several of you that behave like total oafs and would not be let into my home. There is one of you who has the honor of being the first 1999 list member ever to be included in my filters so that I will never again see email from you. In fact you have the honor of being the first person ever, aside from spammers/spam domains. This is all I have to say on this issue. We can try and get back to talking about 1999 though I don't think this list will ever be the same. I do want to thank the many wonderful people I've met over the past year. The reason I was willing to administrate this list was for you. So here are the people I want to thank: Nick Sayer - for starting the list and letting me meet all these great people Marshall Poindexter & David Welle - for volunteering to help with the joyless work of administering this list Phill Wright - for his encouragement and trememdous contribution to the Cyber Museum Roberto Baldassari - for all his help with the Cyber Museum Robert Ruiz - for all his help in ways to numerous to mention, and for being the only person to write me a positive word about the CM when it was first started Johnny Byrne - for continuing support of 1999 and its fans so many years after the show has been off the air Ellen Lindow - for her list contributions and wonderful fan fiction Jeanette Quimby - for her list contributions, we certainly are missing her now Philippa Sidle - more wonderful fan fiction Eddie Lotter - for all his work on the archive and the FAQ John Boomershine - for list posts that always made me laugh George Lee - for the Online Alpha Profile List Claudia Coles - for thoughtful list posts Pat Sokol - for thoughtful list posts and all her work with Marshall on the revised FAQ Daphne Vezina - for thoughtful list posts and legal advice John Fleming - for all the Moonbase items and his Cold North Site for people to post all the things I was too slow to deal with Mike Prendergast - for trusting me with his valued 1999 photos so they could be seen by everybody at the CM Ermes Ventisetti - for thoughtful list posts and a voice of faith Mark Eidemiller - more thoughtful list posts and faith Pat Embury - more thoughtful list posts and also trusting me with her 1999 items for the CM Terry Bowers - for contributions to 1999 fandom beyond what most of us will ever do Chris Potter - for organizing the round the world trip of The Making of Space: 1999 giving many the chance to see it who never would have otherwise, and for his contributions to the CM Zoltan Motyan - for thoughtful list posts and answering my numerous questions about Hungary (where my family is from) for me Allen Retodo - for sharing his model project with all of us Ryan Case - for all the sounds he digitized for the CM Maurizio Majelli - for his wonderful work on HDR, even if it is a PC-only game Any lurkers/posters from the past I may have forgotten for making 1999 on the net so enjoyable until now. Gosh there's a lot of great people involved here. I don't know how the current situation came about. It seems we've let a bunch of ill-mannered oafs change the whole character of this list, despite having such a great bunch of folks. Marcy "True power is knowing that you can, but you don't." --J.A.

Where did we go wrong? Hi all of you, Hi Marcy, I swore to myself that I would not get involved in yet another list crisis. Until now. Personnaly, I have never deleted so many negative posts since I have first subscribed to the original mailing list two years ago. I am sick and tired of hearing people whining and complaining and calling names. Or worse, misunderstanding one another's motives. I know this is not a Polyanna mailing list, but could we PLEASE be at least civilized and act like the adults we are? Remember, this is MOONBASE ALPHA ONLINE, folks! We are supposed to talk and share ideas above our common love, that is a very special British tv show from the '70's. I think that it is called Space: 1999. Not Bickering: 1997. And now, do not, repeat, do not get me wrong here. I am not pointing at anyone. What's the point anyway? While we cannot be on the same wavelenghts all the time, we must at least try to keep focus and get back to business.= NOW. Where did we go wrong? In letting this situation go too far, probably. But let us bury the hatchets and set aside our differences. For this list's sakes. And ours. Robert, I understand your position but your leaving will be our loss as well as yours. I am truly sorry. I hope you can reconsider. In any case, I thank you for what you did and for your wonderful site. Marcy, you are one truly great individual. I was not very active when the Cyber Museum first came along but I do want to say from the bottom of my heart: thank you. Hang on. Love ya all. ______________________________________________________________________ Ce message vous provient de: Daphne Vezina dvezina@mediom.qc.ca Site Web de Daphne/Daphne's Homepage: http://www.mediom.qc.ca/~dvezina/ LIFE 101:Il faut de la fuite dans les id=E9es (Sol) ______________________________________________________________________ *********************************************************** Online Alpha - The Space: 1999 Mailing List To unsubscribe: send email to majordomo@buffnet.net and in the body put unsubscribe space1999 To unsubscribe digest: send email to majordomo@buffnet.net and in the body put unsubscribe space1999-digest *********************************************************** ------------------------------ From: "Jonathan Ward" <JWard@lonet.ca> Date: Fri, 7 Mar 1997 19:57:57 -0500 Subject: Space1999: Virtual MBA Update There are 6 great images in the Fan Art Display by Tony Ritz.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who has noticed the air of tension on the list lately. (I swore I wouldn't get involved, but I hate to see such a great group of people suddenly fall out. I know. It's happened to me, and it's not very nice.) I think we all need to sit back for a while and consider why we are here. Because we're here to discuss and enjoy each other's company while we all discuss our favourite TV show, SPACE: 1999, and also to discuss anything that is related, that YOU feel is relevant. Sometimes I feel that perhaps we stray too far from that aim by talking about what I have deemed "list politics", and voicing our opinions about other people on the list unneccesarily. I will admit that the change of list administration may have been difficult for some list members, (I think it all ran pretty smoothly, Kudos to Marcy K for all she's done) But is that any reason to start bickering? NO! We're all here to enjoy our love of Space 1999, and let's not spoil it with unneccesary arguments? I'm sure that we can all get along as long as we're tolerant of those who decide to "go against the grain" and be hostile. My advice is IGNORE THEM. All I ask is peace. Perhaps we should take lessons from the past. Remember the friendly banter about the moon, my (hilariously) failed screensaver idea, the freindly chat, etc. So, let's try and forget the differences of the past, and look to the future, (well, that's the idea of this list, isn't it?) May I also take this opprtunity to also thank a load of great people. 1) Marcy K. WOW! She has done so much for 1999 on the Internet that it's almost too much to mention! Thankyou! (x1999!) 2)Robert Ashley Ruiz. He deserves all of the thanks you can give him. He's been friend, helper, (cybrarian!) to all of us on the list, including me. Thankyou so much! 3)Marshall Poindexter. Great work for the list also. He deserves as much thanks as his colleague, David Welle, who both have helped so much to make this list a good place. 4)David Welle, for everything I just said for Marshall Poindexter, and you deserve it, too! I'm sure there's a ton of great people that I've forgotten, Thankyou, too, and thanks to everyone just for making this list what it is. GREAT. - -- Ian Wheeler Chief Nuclear Physicist Brown Left sleeve, MBA#164 *********************************************************** Online Alpha - The Space: 1999 Mailing List To unsubscribe: send email to majordomo@buffnet.net and in the body put unsubscribe space1999 To unsubscribe digest: send email to majordomo@buffnet.net and in the body put unsubscribe space1999-digest *********************************************************** ------------------------------ From: greggw@infinet.com (Gregory L.
