Big Tech has gone total TPC. Ever watch The President's Analyst (1967)? The comedy has elements of political satire and sci-fi, with themes of modern ethics and privacy, specifically the intrusion of the telecommunications alliance, with the U.S. government, into citizens' private lives.

The Day After (1983), the most-watched television movie of all time, got to me. Conflict between NATO and the Warsaw Pact over Germany rapidly escalated into a full-scale nuclear exchange. The BBC television film Threads (1984) was similarly horrific.

In the Vietnamese zodiac, the Cat is one of the twelve signs. At the time of the song's release, the most recent Year of the Cat had been 11 February 1975 to 30 January 1976; thus, the song was written and recorded in the Vietnamese Year of the Cat.
