I've evidently led a pretty sheltered existience - I haven't a clue what that was all about.

No. It sounds like you are relatively healthy.

Unless you really need to see some profoundly low budget Brit sci-fi.

I've been known to stay up overnight watching B and C level sci-fi in the past, but didn't recognize the references.

They were all cut from my Dr. Who memories.

Telos is where the Cybermen are from, I believe. (Cybermen are kind of an ultra low budget Borg, but created thirty years earlier.) Daleks are those salt shaker guys that Dr. Who used to fight all the time. And Sontarans were potato-headed time traveler bad guys. I thought sure that one of the Doctors was going to defeat a Sontaran with a potato peeler.

Thanks for the explanation!

No problem. It scares me what sorts of things I find inside my head.

Aside from some brain damage I incurred when I used the old fashioned method of removing an "earworm" (employing a hacksaw, rusty utility knife and ice cream scoop), I haven't done a lot of things that should cause any impairment to my brain. Yet, there is something seriously wrong with the way I can remember things like planetary origins of 40-year-old sci-fi characters but cannot remember where I put my keys, parked my car or even the correct name when addressing one of my cats.

It only gets worse with age, Mark.

I always kid my sweety that she's not going to notice any difference in me if I go senile. I'll just keep getting more and more like myself.

Unless I start knowing where my keys are.
