Okay, I was never a real fan of the "classic" albums because I felt it was a waste of money to buy the same episodes twice, but have they stopped producing them? The last one came out in April of 2001, almost two years ago, unless you count the one on grief which wasn't actually part of the series. Believe me, I don't mind them cancelling them, but they should let us know...

Well, they've run low on themes to make classic albums out of, I would guess! When they have a lot more episodes, they can make more classic albums... but they aren't SUPPOSED to come out frequently.

The classics albums aren't wastes,since not everybody buys all the album. For instance, maybe someone (like myself) decided they liked all the Odyssey Mysteries but didn't want to buy 10 albums to get the 12 episodes they wanted, so they (I) bought A Maze of Misteries. Shortly after it's release i thought that they should release a classics album with all the vacation eps ( I even compiled a list), then a while later I saw that FOTF actually was making one. They seem to be always reading my mind. Another time I thought they should make a Odyssey computer game, and sure enough one comes out a few years later.
Ok, I realise they aren't reading my mind. It was just an obvious thing for them to make a vacation classics album and an computer game. The only idea I actually have submitted to Odyssey was in a letter I wrote when I was younger. At the end i thought that I should included an idea for an episode, so I said that Mr. Whittaker should build a robot (I was at that stage). I might have remembered the video with the giant robot Whit makes for a TV show, and changed the letter to suggest Eugene making one instead. Hmmmm. I wonder if that's where "Idle Minds" came from.
Don't worry though. I am almost positive that it didn't.

LOL... WE might just have to stone you if it was! The only idea I ever actually sent in was that AIO should have an angel visit...
