    Many, many moons ago, I promised to share the opening lines of all 78 Bold
    Venture episodes.  The show was syndicated by Frederic W. Ziv (no consistent
    air dates) so there was no other way to catalogue the episode number unless
    you skipped past the opening theme and went to the first
    few words of dialogue.  It's taken us awhile to transfer all 78 original
    master tapes because each tape, recorded at 30-ips, might have 20-faulty
    edits, but it's finally done.  Stay tuned for when these recordings might be
    made available.  In the meantime, here they
    are--transcribed from the original tapes--promise kept:

    Jack,

    Will the speech be recorded for those of us who won't be able to travel to
    hear you in person?

    Best,
