Dropping this truth in the third para of your Sid Caesar feature. Hats off, John Lahr.

The man who coined the term TV', a car salesman turned inventor called Earl 'Mad-man' Muntz, was a friend of my father's.
Dad had invested in Muntz TV, the first streamlined seventeen-tube low-cost black and white model, which Muntz began selling in 1947. In 1950 my sister, Jane, and I visited Muntz at home in Beverly Hills and encountered for the only time in our lives a TV at the bottom of a swimming pool. The controls were at the pool's edge. You chose your channel, dived into the aquamarine water and swam to your show. In goggles, snorkels and flippers we eddied at the deep end watching I Love Lucy.

P.S. If someone replies to tell me that John Lahr’s dad was The Cowardly Lion I’ll do a small weary scream.
