  4 This was a lesson I learned once when flying from New York to London. A friend offered me a monster English sleeping pill, and I took it half an hour be before the plane was to depart. Fifteen minutes later, the flight was delayed two hours, and said friend ended up having to carry me on board! So after that incident I never medicated myself until half an hour after we were in the air.

  6 A four-day turnaround consists of delivering the finished music for an episode four days after initially viewing the episode.

  7 The technology had escalated in such a way that a musician could set up a bank of synthesizers and assign each one a different instrument sound, then program into a sequencer what each synth would play and have the whole synthesized band play back at the same time in perfect synchronization. This could all be done on a computer, and that is how our work on Crime Story was performed each week. This new technology changed the face and sound of music when introduced in 1985.
