Hear What Starman Heard
by Chuck S 25 Sep '16

Disclaimer: I have no connection with this, and assume no liability whatsoever, but thought you might find it interesting, since it goes to the core of the Starman mythology. What could be the ultimate Starman memento may become available soon. A Kickstarter project has raised enough funds to produce several commemoratives to align with the 40th anniversary of the launch of the Voyager satellites next year. $10 gets you the Voyager Golden Record enamel pin of the iconic diagram from the front of the Voyager Golden Record aluminum case. (Available April 2017) $25 gets you an Art Print and Digital Download, also available April 2017: * Lithograph of the Voyager Golden Record cover diagram, gold metallic ink on archival paper, 12" x 12" * Full-color plastic digital download card for all audio of the Voyager Golden Record (MP3 or FLAC formats) $98 gets the ultimate: the Voyager Golden Record Box Set of the complete recordings and music discs. The recordings with be made on gold colored vinyl to emulate the original gold record, although you don’t need to have a legacy record player hanging around to listen to them, since you do get the digital download as well. Estimated delivery will be Aug 2017 and ships to anywhere in the world: * Cloth-covered box with gold foil inlay * Three translucent gold, heavyweight vinyl LPs in poly-lined paper sleeves * Three old-style tip-on jackets, black ink and gold foil * Hardback, full-color book * Lithograph of Voyager Golden Record cover diagram, gold metallic ink on archival paper, 12" x 12" * Full-color plastic digital download card for all audio of the Voyager Golden Record (MP3 or FLAC formats) The project funds on October 20, and it is not clear if any of these will offered beyond that date. 20% of the proceeds will be donated to the Carl Sagen Institute at Cornell University.

HAPPY 30th ANNIVERSARY, STARMAN!
by Thomas Dachsel 24 Sep '16

24 Sep '16

Greetings and Blue Lights, STARMANET subscribers! Today marks the 30th anniversary of the original broadcast of the first STARMAN episode, "The Return". So if you have a chance, please do share memories, and join in reminiscing about this wonderful TV show! Did anyone who is subscribed to this list see the first episode on TV when it was broadcast 30 years ago? My first episode of STARMAN was "Fathers and Sons", back in 1988 when it was aired on the American Forces Network (AFN) TV station in Germany, which I came across by chance, and I have been "hooked" ever since! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, STARMAN! Blue Lights Thomas Dachsel (The Listowner)

First episode
by Donna Wilker 19 Sep '16

19 Sep '16

Saw every one of the first run episode except Fathers and Sons. Channel was showing some local special that night. Called my mom long distance to have her tape it. She lived in another state. When she asked if I wanted her to mail it to me I said no but to hand carry it when she came to visit us a few weeks later. I was afraid it would get lost in the mail. Later she told me she watched it to see what was so special about it that we would make such a request. She became a life long fan from then on. We had managed to tape every episode, so she got to see them all. My husband even made her a copy for her to take home.

Vicki's and Liz's status
by Jean Laidig 18 Aug '16

18 Aug '16

My report confirms what Bruce sent, except that Liz said the motel was in Lakeport. Vicki Werkley communicated with a mutual friend, who sent me the following info: Vicki and Liz Turner (with Vicki's husband Tom and their bird) got a motel room in Kelseyville after 3 evacuations. Downtown Lower Lake is not in good shape. The fire started about a quarter mile north of Vicki and as far as is known, her place is safe. On Sunday, the fire was moving toward Liz's (she is on Cache Creek above the high school). A neighbor reported that it looked as if Vicki's place was safe as of August 14 afternoon. The fire had gone off toward the north east where it would run into the area that burned last year. I don't have any further information yet about Liz's place. We can all hope her optimistic report to Bruce proves true. According to a news site, a man has been arrested and charged with arson in setting this fire as well as others over the last year... I'll let you know any updates I receive. -- Jean Laidig

SN: Question about Vicki
by Guenther Herden 17 Aug '16

17 Aug '16

Hi All, The news reports that fire has devastated Lower Lake. Does anyone have news about Vicki ? She has been relocated before, but this sounds very serious. We wish her well, but I feel worried. Hopefully someone has info as I assume she has no access to a computer at this point. Sharon Herden

Thanks, Liz, for keeping us updated about how the fires are affecting you all up there. The fires have been so terrible. I'm glad everyone is OK now. Linda In a message dated 8/16/2016 5:32:20 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, starmanet(a)starmanet.com writes: Hi Sharon, There has been a thread of Facebook going on about this. Below is the latest update from Liz Turner who also lives in the area. Well, We got evacuated .... Not once but twice. We are currently in Lakeport in a hotel because the evacuation centers are so crowded and there was not very good accommodations for Vicki's bird, and with my back a cot was not a good idea, so I suggested we get a motel room. So here we are. We have heard word that Vicki's street is in good shape. The fire started in a field behind the houses across the street from her. If anyone has seen the news you my know that the town of Lower Lake did not fare well as several business and residences were destroyed by fire. There have been over 175 homes destroyed between Clearlake, Lower Lake and surrounding areas. I have not received definite word on my house, but some information indicates my neighborhood has not been affected. Will post again when I have more info.
