www.archive.org/movies/prelinger.phpThough this might interest you guys. The Prelinger Archives has digitized almost 2,000 and counting of the films similar to the kinds seen on MST3K, which he calls "ephemeral films." Prelinger is the guy who most people went to over the years to get these things because he had so many of them. Needless to say, several shorts from MST3K are on the site in their full, dull glory. You can stream most of them off the site, but some have to be downloaded. Shortcuts to some of the MST3K shorts: * Are You Ready For Marriage?* Body Care and Grooming* Design for Dreaming*The Home Economics Story, Part 1 and Part 2* A Case of Spring Fever (And now you know how I made my avatar!) * CheatingI'm sure there's more, but sadly, Mr B Natural is noticeably absent. There's also quite a few that never made the show from some of these studios that are a riot all on their own. In particular, "Boys Beware" (beware the danger of homosexuals lurking in the shadows!), "Are You Popular" (all about conforming for popularity!), and "Habit Patterns" (Goofus and Gallant for girls with the most patronizing, insulting narrator ever written!). Oh, and the classic "Duck and Cover" is included here. Enjoy.

Ah, thanks! I've finished showing my subjects the Cody shorts that I procured, and TCM doens't show shorts as frequently as it used to. The movie experiment can continue with short films once again!
