The fuel cell. After years of costly research and testing the technology is finally ready for market, and promises to be the savior of a world quickly depleting its natural resources. The fuel cell has proven to be an affordable, renewable and environmentally friendly means of feeding the world's voracious hunger for energy. With concern growing throughout the industrialized world about the continued stability of crude oil supplies and no end in sight to soaring gasoline prices, the fuel cell's entrance onto the world stage as a means for powering automobiles could not have come at a better time. Or could it? The CEOs of the world's three largest oil companies don't necessarily embrace the idea of the fuel cell replacing the internal combustion engine. Realizing that they are on the verge of losing billions in revenue, they decide to take action.

The information herein was accumulated of fifty some odd years. The collection process started when TV first came out and continued until today. The books are in alphabetical order and cover shows from the 1940s to 2010. The author has added a brief explanation of each show and then listed all the characters, who played the roles and for the most part, the year or years the actor or actress played that role. Also included are most of the people who created the shows, the producers, directors, and the writers of the shows. These books are a great source of trivia information and for most of the older folk will bring back some very fond memories. I know a lot of times we think back and say, "Who was the guy that played such and such a role?" Enjoy!
