Comments on: New Schedule http://sector7g-zz9.com/it/2006/09/12/new-schedule/ Updates on capping at Inventing Situations and the like Thu, 20 Nov 2008 13:37:24 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: GersonK http://sector7g-zz9.com/it/2006/09/12/new-schedule/#comment-289 GersonK Fri, 15 Sep 2006 01:57:06 +0000 http://sector7g-zz9.com/it/2006/09/12/new-schedule/#comment-289 Thanks for the input. I'm starting to get the feeling that I'm a lot more concerned about the distinction than most cappers. Ad&Info may help people figure out what they're getting faster, but it may also make the stuff sound even drearier for newcomers. Also note that many ephemeral films, like <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.archive.org/details/YoungMan1952" rel="nofollow">Young Man's Fancy</a> are in fact presented like dramas, and others like <a href="http://www.archive.org/details/Oversand1964" rel="nofollow">Overs and Outs</a> have less information in them than an episode of American Idol. And I can hardly call the block that contains Three Stooges shorts "dramatised vids". Maybe I should just name them like TV programs (Playhouse Situations, The Industrial-Educational Complex) and just footnote what the heck they are. Thanks for the input.

'Dramatised Vids' versus 'Ad&Info' or 'Assorted Films' ?

‘Dramatised Vids’ versus ‘Ad&Info’ or ‘Assorted Films’ ?

Maybe the distinction isn't as important to people just here to cap.
