Phosphor Dot Fossils fast-forwards to the distant future of BBC-1 in January 1978, to relive the excitement and dystopian existential dread of Blake's 7, now as a point-and-click adventure game! Except that I haven't even made it off Earth by the end of this segment because I don't have somebody's order from the kitchen. Seriously, if you know the answer to this puzzle, leave it in the comments, because I'm ready to start the revolution here.

Phosphor Dot Fossils ( http://www.thelogbook.com/phosphor/ ) is one of the web's oldest archives of vintage console, computer, and arcade games; there was also a 2-DVD documentary of the same name, covering the early history of video games, produced in 2008 and 2009 (now available for download at http://www.thelogbook.com/store/ ). And these days? PDF aims to bring a more laid-back, less-caffeinated, less-profanity-spewing experience to the retro video game longplay video.
