The benefit party for OPUS on September 13 (prior to the Bay Area UFO Expo) is shaping up to be quite an event. I have to admit some inside interest here, but I'm looking forward to chatting with the people attending...it has the makings of very interesting conversation. Maybe you can ask Colin Andrews what he thinks of SIGNS, or Budd Hopkins what he expects from Steven Spielberg's TAKEN. Donation checks must be received at OPUS by August 31st, so don't wait too long. The US Post Office gets 10 days to deliver First Class mail, so you should send your check right away to be sure it gets there. See Live Events below.

The SCI-FI Channel is going to be airing the new version of IN SEARCH OF (hosted this time by Mitch Pileggit). It's currently scheduled to run Fridays at 8:00 PM, probably starting October 4 (maybe the 11th). I'll do something on the new tv season soon. ANIMAL PLANET has a mini-marathon of THE PET PSYCHIC on Tuesday, September 3. Rob McConnell of X-ZONE radio let us know he'll be the announcer for CTV's CREEPY CANADA series, which premieres September 9th, and is scheduled to run Mondays at 6:00 PM.

For things that don't change from week to week, you can now go to http://hometown.aol.com/bufocalvin/BWWMARC.htm. This page is still in development, but it is intended to be a reference to the series, both radio and television. If you get a chance, please take a look at it and let me know what information you would like to see included. I want to keep it in a reference format. If you are someone involved in the production side, I'd appreciate your help with first airdates, etc. In addition, I have set up a similar database at the website for this group, http://groups.yahoo.com/group/bwwma.

This weekly (if I can get back to that) listing will focus on the content of upcoming episodes. That should make this a bit lighter and more focused.

Oh, and I need to stress that the e-mail address used to send this is there primarily to make this more universally legible. I do not check it for e-mail often. If you need to contact me, please use bufocalvin@.... I check that one often. Thanks!
