Sigskall and Egbert Re view August Program.
     In keeping with our policy of adapting to the fact that our mem
bers lead busy lives we present this critical review of the August pro
gram by noted Video Critics, Jane Sigskall and Rosalind Egbert.  Due to
limitations of space only the summary of the review is presented here:
     Sigskall: ''So, in review I'd have to say that Apple World, l987
is a video         characterized  by a sympathetic, posssibly even
haunting, tenderness which accurately brings to the T.V. screen the
hopes, and dreams of a young dynamic      and creative company excited
about doing important and significant work.''
     Egbert: ''Hogwash Jane, pure hogwash.  It was trite,
propagandistic and insipid.      In fact  it is the kind of thing you
would only see at a Sum mer pro-gram of a Mac User's Group when
everybody is on vacation and the steer ing committee is looking for a
quick program fix. It was the kind of  program only a Mac owner could
love.''
     Sigskall: ''Well Roz, I'm a Mac owner and I thought it was lovely.
 And I think you are probably, in addition to being stupid, illiterate,
and uncaring, a closet owner of an I.B.M. clone.'' 
     Egbert: ''Jane, there is something I always wanted to tell you. 
You are a rotten critic, a braying jackass, you are color blind and
tone deaf  and besides you make bad biscuits.'' 
     Sigskall: ''Roz, I resent that terribily, I do not make bad
biscuits.''
     And there you have it folks, an objective review of our August
program by a pair of dis ate critics.
