Default Update on television program

Thank all of you for your suggestions and stories. I settled on proposing
the Bob Korves-related tale of the contest pilot who landed out above the
clouds because it would give me the opportunity to show 15 minutes of
kick-ass aerials at the beginning before people changed to the ALL NASCAR
CHANNEL or Bass Fishing.

They liked better the idea of a go-for-broke expedition launched from the
outskirts of my favorite quaint village...Los Angeles (cheap for them to
produce) and a flight into the Great Basin of America...get this...WITHOUT A
MOTOR! Yes. That's right. No motor. And as a further complication, I thought
it could go out of Crystal. Go figure! A flight out of Crystal into the void
without a motor. A first...for the rest of the planet anyway.

Of course, their note ended with "Don't call us. We'll call you." But I take
that as a positive sign. Usually they say they will get a restraining order.
At least this time, I didn't have to be escorted from the lot by their
goons.

If they say yes and you have a two-seat motorglider, hide from me. If there
is one word that describes me it is tenacious and persistent.

Thanks again.
