:idea: :roll:

I was thinking that one of my favorite aspects of the CBSRMT were the openings. In particular the shows narrated by E.G. Marshall. But regardless of who did the openings there is a certain charm about them that really had the ability to get you excited about the show. I remember always looking forward to what clever quote or intro that Mr. Marshall would use to open with. I thought if we weren't already documenting the interesting quotes used in the intro's that it might make for a fun topic. For example the intro to [b:76dcafaa4d]CBSRMT 760227 Half a life[/b:76dcafaa4d] contained a quote from H.L. Menken. As the forum has search capabilities it would be another nice way of referencing episodes. For instance, I remember a show opening with an Einstein quote but I couldn't for the life of me tell you which one that was. We could have a separte thread for just quotes and/or other interesting narration. Using the search, we could then perform a query for Einstein or whoever we were looking for to turn it up if it had been referenced already. Apart from utility it might be an interesting collection. smile.gif Just a thought... I wonder if there would be any interest in this?

That is a good idea. I know that there is at least one program I am looking for right now based on comments made at the beginning of the program. Maybe including these in listening logs (when possible) would do the trick or maybe a thread just for that. :?:
