  1. Excellent.

    Yes, I remember Chris Burke very well. (In 1992 I read a Reader's Digest article on the man and his impact on the TV industry).

    Some years ago - 2001 - there was a Facts of Life marathon.

    Often these firsts tell us something about ourselves. And it's the long-term impact which we remember.
