Channel 13's Saturday Night News at 6:00 reported that long-time WSPD-TV news man Frank Venner died yesterday. Here's a link to his obituary: http://www.tributes.com/show/Frank-C.-Venner-94219767. Here's the 13 News Report: http://www.13abc.com/video?clipId=75790 ... start=true. You can even see a few ads from my site in it.

Also nice excuse for them to go dig around their archive for any footage to show here from the late 70's/early 80's (at least the station saved something outside a private collector's stash though I don't suppose we'll see much else locally unless someone wants to contact me privately), though they appear to be promos anyway. The way it is I'd rather those clips be seen on their website if that's the only place to stick them on.

The fact though they did comb your site I only wish they gave you some honorable mention.

I use to see him on High School Quiz myself!
