I'm a GIS analyst for the State of Utah, living in Salt Lake City. I'm a shameless nerd and always have been (if you hadn't guessed). The picture you see is one I took of one of Salt Lake's more impressive buildings.

It's fantastic that this series has been released on DVD for all us fans who remember it from its first-run days and keep praying that our threadbare old VHS tapes of it hold out. Thanks to Universal for releasing it and including the deleted scenes and commentaries, but why didn't they even make a small attempt at cleaning up the transfer?

Some of these are fantastic and can be added without much difficulty to most campaigns without unbalancing them too badly (IMO ;-)).
