You might remember me from such educational films as "What To Do in a Gas Attack" and "Boy with a Knife".
Seriously, for those with broadband, this site looks like a lot of fun. There are low-bandwidth (as well as high-bandwidth) streaming versions, but the server seems to be too crowded. The downloadable versions I looked at were all at least 40 MB.

Given how many great *Simpsons* gags have to do with creaky old educational or public-service films, I thought people around here would like it.
Incidentally, I spoke too soon about the streaming servers. They're not as consistently overcrowded as I thought, and the low-bandwidth quality is actually pretty decent.
My favorite so far is "One Got Fat," a bizarre and darkly surrealistic bike-safety film narrated by Edward Everett Horton.
And how often does one get to say *that*?
