Re: FLUXLIST: HulkChat (no fluxus content)
I always assumed that the name was changed from Bruce to David because the name "Bruce" had gay connotations acsribed to in US pop culture in the late seventies. Bill Bixby was kind of a sad guy, on TV anyway. First Eddie's father then the beleagured Hulk. He should have been given a turn as a TV private detective like everyone else was. But then he might have ended up being an introspective sullen, Beckett-esque anti-detective. "But what would be the point of finding your husband, ma'am? The truth will only lead to dissappointment."

FLUXLIST: VIRUS WARNING - "A Great Shockwave Flash Movie"
Hey Everyone, I just wanted to warn you about a virus (an obvious virus) that is going around. Especially if you have a pc - DON'T OPEN email with the subject line, "A Great Shockwave Flash Movie." It's one of those pesky viruses that immediately forwards to all in your address book. Just be warned... Regards.

Re: FLUXLIST: [Fwd: Hi there from i-zone.com!]
Hi Carol, Thanks for sending this i-zone news, I find it entertaining that Polaroid only now launches an online opportunity for people to share their i-zones but Fluxlist has already been doing this for over a year cheers, Sol.
Re: FLUXLIST: HulkChat (no fluxus content)
>wasn't his name Bruce Banner in the comic, but David Banner in the series?< yes, but oddly enough in the TV Series of Spiderman they kept the name Peter Parker. Alliterative naming is crucial in these things ( wasn't Dr.Strange called Steve ?) >Don't remember the Absorbing Man.< I don't have any Absorbing man comics. I just remember the Hulk battle with him, also Hulk battled Thor in a later issue around the same time. Anyhow the Absorbing Man had finally been contained and in jailyou see the problem, he can absorb anything..he really can be a man of steel as oppose to that Kent lad whose only similarity to steel is a combination of luck and his proximity to the red sun of Krypton. So the Absorbing Man was contained in a cardboard box because absorbing that would make him weak, so he stays in the box..of course the cell leaks a little and the box gets damp, our Absorbing buddy sees his chance and becomes water, escapes and a few pages later engages in fisticuffs with that green muscle-bound radiation boy we've come to know and love, although we don't like him when he's angry... cue music.walking along at the side of the road, bag over one shoulder.one of TV's saddest weekly moments in the seventies. cheers, Sol.
