I remember when Batman first aired back in 1966. It became one of the most popular TV shows in history up until that time. It was on twice a week, which was very unusual for that time. I wanted to be like Batman because he had that utility belt and he always had a solution to any problem that life sent his way. I will miss Adam West, I really owe him a debt of gratitude. In some way he actually influenced what I became later in life, a programmer, i.e. a problem solver.

It was on in syndication. I hated the fact you had to wait until the next day to see how it unfolded. I didn't always get to watch the next day.
