> Back in the days without any time-shifting technology, many, many people planned their schedule around what time a TV (or even older, a radio) program aired. Season 5 aired when I was working tech support at SGI in Mountain View. The problem was that the time slot was at 3 pm? or was it 4pm? Either way... I was still at work. One of the tools that existed at SGI was a program called "All hands" which was intended for doing broadcasts of all hands to the entire company without trying to stuff them all in one room. And it worked quite well. The question is what do you do with it the other 256 days of the year when it's not doing the quarterly broadcasts? Well... most of the time someone in the AV department had set it to rebroadcast daytime TV. A few of us were able to persuade the AV department to change the channel at the appropriate time so that B5 would be multicast out for us to watch on All Hands.
