Which reminds me: when I first got the assignment to introduce Sony's
JumboTron to the U.S. nearly 20 years ago with a fax from Tokyo, I got
really excited. I spent the whole weekend cooking up ideas about how we
could transform some spectacular buildings/backdrops/locations into gigantic
info/entertainment displays around the country. On Monday, I came back to
the office and fax some of these sketches back to Tokyo. My wet dream was
rudely interrupted when they faxed me back with: "You realize that the
smallest size JumboTron starts at $5 million, right?" Oh, well. :-)
