Here's the stupid thing about the syndication worry: it's
nonexistent. The stations invariably grab shows in production order
unless something is specifified to the contrary on the inventory
sheets. Every so often, some of the animated shows I worked on years
ago will show up...and they're *still* being played in correct order,
and I doubt very much the station is trying to do so, it's just a
matter of going in numerical order off the charts. This is a concern
that goes back to very early syndication that doesn't hold anymore.

If nominated I will not run, if elected I will not serve, if
impeached I will burn the tapes, write a book, build a library and
become an elder statesman.
