Dang, I can't I ever get a game posted before you do, no matter how early I'm up! At least people have multiple games to go with their morning whatever.

Suitguy is not bitter.
feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive
The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

I don't know who most of these people are, sad to say. I know Conrad was the guy with the Duracell battery on his shoulder. Or was that Chuck Connors? I think Janssen was the original Prisoner or Fugitive or something (mainly I know this from a recent NYT crossword). Garner and Selleck were both tv detectives, so I guess I'll go with that. Hopefully the other nine didn't do poke-out-your-eyes-and-puncture-your-eardrums Polaroid ads with Mariette Hartley.

That's ROBERT Conrad (Jim West, Pappy Boyington)! He's very much alive BTW. David Janssen was Harry O as well as Dr. Richard Kimble.I don't know who most of these people are, sad to say. I know Conrad was the guy with the Duracell battery on his shoulder. Or was that Chuck Connors? I think Janssen was the original Prisoner or Fugitive or something (mainly I know this from a recent NYT crossword).

This is Timothy Hutton's father. He played Ellery Queen in the late 70s. I loved this show and was really upset back in '79 (I think that was the year) when I learned he died of a heart attack. One of the first celebrity deaths that really affected me

Never heard of two of them, and don't know what TV show Lawford might have been in -- (he sure was on Password and whatnot a lot, though) -- but the rest of them (I think) played PI's in a TV show whose name was in the title. So, that'll be my guess.
