Well, that show went on for longer than most shows of it's time. It ended around 1987? That's fifteen years ago. So they must have done a bit of research and figured to clue in viewers of the Screensavers with who RDA was. RDA is way better known for Mac than SG. I saw this first hand at Gatecon where some passer-by got one blink at a photo held by someone in the autograph line and squeed "macGyver's here?!" We had to let her down gently.
We have to remember it was a interview for a more general audience than sci fi fans. I think it would be many more SG questions if, say, an interview done by SciFi channel. I'm sure the questions were weighted to a few more MacGyver ones just to not drive away the people that don't like sci fi.
And I'm told the entirity of the video files we can watch on the TechTV site didn't make it into the TV version of the interview. So not sure if much of the question emphasizing concerns about slash was aired.
