I think this would be a lot of fun and a great idea.  However, I think
it may be a bit late to get everything done--at least done right--for
P5.  We'd definitely be ready by P6, however.

Should this idea be taken seriously, I can offer the use of various
camcorders that can double as live cameras, as well as a switcher.  I
can even provide studio (read "basement") space for production.  The
downside?  I live in Taylor.  I say "downside" cuz most people seem to
live out yonder.
