The Six Million Dollar Man debuted in March of 1973. The CPI in March of 1973 was 44.4

The CPI last month was 218.783...

I am not good with math... but I THINK that this means that in adjusted dollars, the six million dollar man would be the $29,565,270.27 man today if you didnt figure in the lower cost of computer parts....

but I think that the computer controller would not be the majority of the cost... and... since he was an astronaut originally who crashed and burned in a test plane... I can not help but think it was the government who rebuilt him... and one thing we know about the government is that it is innefficient with money... rather than paying $20 for a bionic piston, they would set up a department of bionic piston evaluation and testing and pay five people full time wages to make sure they got their $20 worth out of that piston.

The bigger question is this... would the six million dollar man run Windows Vista?

discuss.

Vicki Ausbrooks (Shaw) (1988) Dusty Rhoades, The Fantastiks... I was mainly just into Hacksaw and R & R Express. I believe they still have the fair there. Haven't been in YEARS. So many great concerts there! Poison, Motley Crue, Ratt, Bon Jovi...

Justin James (1986) I still enjoy live music, but after all the concerts i have been too as i get older the best time i have ever had was at a Jimmy Buffet show! I have seen him about 20 times from indoor shows to large outdoor shows to a little hole in the wall show at Lulu's! he makes the whole crowd want to get up and party!

11/17/08 04:08 PM	#208
Vicki Ausbrooks (Shaw) (1988) I've never seen him, but I'd love to! His greatest hits CD is AWESOME!

Justin James (1986) well if any one gets a chance to its worth the money! but be warned its a party and you better dress for the occasion!

Robert Welch (1989) Alright. I need some insanity that I can handle. I just spent a day teaching 3rd graders. Sometimes being a substitute teacher can be painful. The really weird thing is that I am the sub that they beg to get back.

Jamie Gartman (1989) I have a vague recollection of Battle of the Planets. I remember the music and the winged orphans. I will admit to watching Greatest American Hero too, although I don't remember much about it other than he had to have the costume on to have any powers.

Vicki Ausbrooks (Shaw) (1988) Greatest American Hero!!! Love the theme song! He had such stylin' hair, too!

In the early 1970s, Japan's Tatsunoko Production company created a television show called "Science Nija Team Gatchaman"

it was re-cut and shown on American TV as both "Battle of the Planets" and G-force.

They just released Gatchaman on DVD. I kinda know one of the voice actors who did some of the dubbing. They are currently making a CGI movie of it.

Alex Ross did a pretty sweet painting for the sleeve of the gatchaman box set.

Greatest American Hero... who cares... as long as it has Connie Sellecca in it, I am on board.

...and for the discount price of $76.99... you can get the entire series WITH a cape and notebook
