>> * It appears that the car was destroyed -- was this in fact the

>> * Could we get a copy of the episode for our archives? Many of our

>>
>> * Do any of you have additional pictures of the "Hydro 2000" from
>> this episode?
>>
>> I am sending this to you with the hopes that you can provide some
