Thank you!

Here I thought I was just an old fuddy-duddy with a 4-year-old that is 
quickly turning into an advertiser's dream (*More Ovaltine please*)

I know, advertising and product sales pay the rent here too, but those 
shoshkeles were really annoying and the samples put up interfered with 
content really bad -- and, I thought the mock up one on DiscoveryKids was 
in bad taste even if Discovery /is/ a commercial enterprise -- kids want to 
discover something other than the latest and greatest advertising gimmick.

Just my old fuddy-duddy opinion -- kinda makes me miss animated gifs.
