Indeed! I always thought Tommy Kirk added a bit of spark to even the 
least of the Disney films he was in, and Merlin Jones was fun. The fate 
of his acting career, considering the times in which it ran aground, 
may be understandable, but it would be nice - and proper - if he could 
receive something of his due today.
