Incredible! My father had a PET Commodore and I used to watch this program/animation over and over again when I was 6 years old (this and the "Hawaii" program). I also enjoyed playing "Dam Busters" and "Space Invaders" on that green screen. I vaguely remember that the command to call a program from the floppy disk drive included the keyword LOAD with an asterisk as an argument... or something like that. Thanks to kmoser for posting this and kmorley for writing the program!
Wonderful PET animation!!

Lol, I can't believe I'm seeing this again after almost 30 years!
It's not quite as awesome without the sound; it played 'Oh Canada' when they put up the flag. :o)
Thanks for the flash-back!
