That commercial was set to music....like a chant almost. All it took was for me to hear it twice and I had it totally memorized ... and I was maybe 10. I still remember it without any effort. Very clever marketing.

| It's really neat seeing those old commericals. I sat there one day and went on www.retrojunk.com and watched a bunch of old commericals from the '90's...I was getting all nostalgic on myself. Like this one: http://www.retrojunk.com/details_commercial/98/

| I don't think I can get all nostalgic about the 90's. It's too recent for me. When I went to that site, I was all like, damn it only goes back as far as the 70's. The clips that get me nostalgic are the few they have from the 60's.

| Most of my childhood was lived in the '90's. I was born in '85, so it's what I remember seeing, just as when you grew up in the '60's. That would be amazing if Retrojunk had things from the 1960s!! Did you see the commerical on retrojunk for the Blythe Doll and her eyes changed colours she blinked??

I was thinking about it. I bet the reason there's so little stuff from earlier than the 70's on there is because there were no VCRs way back then. If you look at the quality of some of the 70's clips, they seem to have those funny lines in them that you'd get from taping something on a VCR. The newer clips seem a lot clearer. Who would ever think to record a TV commercial anyway? I remember how we used to do screencaps. We'd tape something from the TV on our VCR, then stop the frame, take a picture with a 35mm camera, get the film developed, send the pic to our friends via snail mail... cripes, you guys have it so easy now!

| The people who recorded those commercials were thinking back then!! Wow, I remember snail mail. I got my first email address when I was 14, back in '99, I felt so cool. Now I have several!! It's so easy now, you're right. The kids in the future are going to have it easier than us now!
