For some reason there are old messages in this echo - the sysop recently 
re-added it for me - so I'm in cluding the entire text below.

Just wanted to say that since this was written I have watched that season of 
Frequency. Great show! Was NOT a remake, but  could tell was inspired from the 
movie (which I LOVE, BTW).

 DW> I liked it.
