[GreenKeys] [External] Re: Hal ST-6 using it in modern times

[Bruce Gentry]

Simple as these commercials and jingles were, they were very well 
written and did what they were intended to.  Many were Hollywood quality 
in every way,  and are remembered decades later, even the ones promoting 
stinking deadly poison. I doubt the ones  of today  will be regarded 
with anything but scorn. I can't think of even one "earworm" jingle of 
today, unlike the ones we constantly hummed, sang, and satirized  
decades ago.  Does anyone know  of any commercials, in print or on 
television,  showing a teletype operator so harried or tired they 
"needed" the product,  or a scene with the equipment in the background?
