Cal_Man, you're a star! That's a far more stylish front page --
thank you. And it all happened in a coupla hours while I
entertained friends. Wow.

I know it's impertinent and ungrateful, but I'd like to add a BUT.
What Barret is remembered for now (and, I expect, in 20 and even 50
years) in NES, FRANKENWEENIE, DARYL....and just possibly one or two
more items that only Americans have access to (Tadashiro is
suffering from lack of material in Brazil, and so am I in UK).

So couldn't the header photo be a vidcap from one of the roles where
he made such an eneormous impression, winning admiration and loyalty
across the generations? Even if he made a come-back now, he'd be
billed as ex-Bastian or ex-Daryl, poor guy. He was an unbelievably
charismatic juvenile actor (no other has ever really interested me
at all) -- just browse the web and see how the world remembers him.

I'm not too fussed about where he is now - he just deserves to be
happy (but, if you surf a bit around 'Groups', the implications are
that he's not). He left some wonderful stuff from the 80's. Can we
talk about it and enjoy it (see my earlier postings)? I'd love to
figure out with your help what made this child truly great on screen.

But thanks, Cal_Man. Our page now looks a whole lot more welcoming
