He then e-mailed the individual frames to TTAN where I decoded it into Videotex, corrected any errors and converted them to GIF files. The HTML interface was contributed by David Bennett. We hope they bring back a few memories for you."

                Doesn't do it for me either. I pressed the red button on my TV remote when they told me to, and my f***ing TV went off.....
