Harold Deppe (sole survivor of the Golden Age and Me) Harold old boy--don't ever run out of energy or become a disbeliever because currently you could eaily become CBS's sole supporter of its Website. And that honestly would be a sad loss. Your comment about Old Timers shook me awake to follow up on an outstanding debt owed me by the Retirees. I was fairly active in 2008 with the Webmaster (whose name eludes me at the moment) active because he himself was as energetic as you in keeping the ball rolling while instigating a very active participation in bringing "news" to the attention.of the CBS'rs. He was aware of my writing a book titled "The Golden Age" a 40 year history of Television's beginning and asked if it was published commercially. He was told that it was not because its main thrust was to make my grandchildren aware of my contributions to its start up. He pressed for a loaner book for those interested which I agreed to with the provision that it be retured to me. The book was read by a number of cbs'ers and then fell silent. But the good fortune is a log was kept of the borrowers and the last person who borrowed the book is named. By copy of this e-mail I'm asking for that person to return it to Harold Deppe who will use it over a period of time to provide exerps of it for the site. That name can be found in the 2008 "Ramblings" ( The webmaster at the time, who I'll always remember, was taken from us with a fatal dose of cancer). Good Night & Good Luck! jlk |
