I am now humming that song from memory. I LOVED watching 3-2-1 contact after school. But as a parent, I can tell you that it's sooo much better growing up today. We had to have shows like that dribbled out to us on a daily basis, and learning stopped after the 30 minutes were over and the McNeil Lehrer News Hour would start. Today, kids have access to that kind of programming any time they want, on various screens, in never ending quantities. Any question can be answered without a trip to the library or reading decades old information out of whatever volume of World Book Encyclopedia your family had on hand. It was simpler when we were younger because our world was so much smaller.
