Well, yes, I am indeed old--I played Siberian Khatru in public when it was
still new (the tune, not the public).  But I still think we can't be
talking about the same set.  This one is up high on the wall to the right
of the bar, facing slightly back to the bar.  I don't recall that it was a
projection TV, but I do recall very distinctly (this was during the late
NFL playoffs) that I could barely make out what teams were playing, and
couldn't see stuff like numbers at all.  More like some floaty pastel
colored ghosts swishing around on the screen.
