Can't wait. I've got a copy of The Spaghetti City Video Manual sitting above my work bench. It's still one of the best comprehensive guide to pre-digital video and audio connectors I've found. How 'bout a second edition?

Tom,
There'll be more of everybody in the finished version. In fact some of the money raised in this campaign will be used to finish interviewing all of the Videofreex - including Nancy Cain.
Thanks for your support!
Creator thomas weinberg on May 31, 2012
This is great! SO glad you're doing it.
I hope we'll see more video of Nancy Cain in the finished version.
