I would be a supporter of such an endeavor, however few people understand the costs involved with production. Editing time would eat up a budget quickly even if Lindsay owns the suite. He still has to recoup the costs of that and the camera and other great which again is not cheap.

If someone were to begin to work on taking such a project and turning it in to a scripted concept I believe it could not only be produced but sold as a 1 hour or more project.

I would be willing to help fund production on the front end as well as provide services in kind or for back end points if it ever pulled out of the red.

What a concept. So do we do something with it or do we let this idea and opportunity slide...
