Hmm, I feel those stirrings also. All will be revealed tomorrow at 12:01 am (or whenever BK puts up those notes which is actually 3:01 am NY time).

Okay, you two--settle down!  Groundhog's Day won't be here for two more days.

On my way to do a couple of errands and then lunch with Yvette (Lawrence, not Vickers or Mimieux).

Well, then, you've come to the right place!

I don't, either.

Anyone read about the L.A. politician who plans on introducing legislation to ban the sale of incandescent light bulbs in the state of California?

While incandescents are not as efficient as fluorescents, he would ask that we ban the incandescent bulb.

But...never ban cigarettes.  No.  TAX cigarettes.

Why not add a tax to the sale of incandescents for anyone who wants an incandescent?  That tax would offset whatever damage they claim incandescents do.

But by all means, let cigarettes be sold....far more worthwhile to allow the sales of death sticks than light bulbs.

Nope, it will be revealed in tomorrow's notes. It's not what you might be thinking. MusicGuy and I are on the the same plane (astral not air) and we know whereof we speak  ;)

Two Ohio restorations

Thanks, Ginny! I think they also restored the Palace theatre in my hometown of Marion, OH, but I haven't checked in on it yet.

The best movie theater restoration I've seen is, hands down, the El Capitan here in LA.

They did a pretty good job with the Alex in Glendale.

I don't believe I've had a proper blintz since 1989.

I don't know if I've ever had an actual blintz.  I wonder if I can get one somewhere today. :)

 History should honor what was and show respect for those who were forced to use a separate section of the theater.

Which issue was the subject of one the few social protests in which I participated in the 50s. The only movie theatre in Annapolis was requiring our only Black classmate to sit in the balcony - the earlier Annapolic classes, who also had a few tokens, did not challenge the policy - we did - and won. (A threat of a boycott by an establishment's main clientele is very potent.)

DR EDISAURUS that is of course the 1960 film THE HYPNOTIC EYE!!

And my money is on Allison - although she meets a rather grisly end in the finale.

DR George:

I have seen every episode of DIRT so if you have any questions about the show or characters, I'll be glad to try to answer them for you.

Thanks.  I just don't know what to ask.  

Here's one...including last night's, how many episodes have there been?

Why not add a tax to the sale of incandescents for anyone who wants an incandescent?

Thank-you! Using government's taxing policy to encourage socially responsible behavior is something even a conservative like me can support. (Of course I support a $3.00/gallon tax on gasoline as well.)

Meanwhile, the Delaware coastal dwellers are up in arms at the thought that the state might support wind farms over a new coal burning power plant. The wind-farms (9-15 miles off ahore) might ruin their pristine vista, not to mention the unsightly power connection boxes where the power comes ashore. Even some of the environmentalists oppose the windmill farms: might hurt some birds, and noisy transmission lines on the sea bed might scare the fish!

My favoritie scheme proposed  for preserving Delaware's air quality is that we should prohibit any new power plants, tear down the existing power plant and pull our power needs off of the NorthEastern Interstate grid.

Of course there are thgose who want us to buils a corn-to-methanol plant; after all we are a mjoer agricultural state. (True, but we import corn! Those chickens sure do eat!) Sussex County, Delaware is ranked first among America's counties in broiler chicken production.

Also, we have a pair of tickets (5th row center) for the matinee on Feb. 24 that we won't be able to use, and if you're interested in that kind of thing, you can have them gratis - we just don't want the seats to go to waste, and when it comes to Atlanta, you're the first person I think of these days, of course.

Awwwww!  That would be wonderful, FJL!

Would it be tacky or would you be offended if I offered them for a silent auction instead of seeing the show myself? I have been collecting items for our SMA Masquerade on Feb. 17th, and we have nothing like this! Randy Newman and Alton Brown have given me some great autographed items, Ken Burns sent over a huge box of autographed books, DVD's and jazz CD's and local merchants that Greg and I frequent have been very generous, but this is something that anyone would want to go to so it would be easy to get bids for it.

From last year's event:
http://s4796.gridserver.com/index.php?fam_atlanta

My godson Quinn has SMA---he's a brilliant, musical kid but will be in a wheelchair the rest of his life. This group strictly funds research and has made some progress towards finding a cure. Quinn has been flying into Salt Lake City for regular visits for experimental therapy.

If you think that would be OK with your friends, it would be an extremely cool thing to have, especially since the tickets are a week after the auction. We can send your friend a tax document thanking them for their donation. (We're a 501C-3.)

Are there any "Raintree County" (the movie) fans in this forum?

If so...there is some phenomenal news.  After many years, and despite numerous LP and CD incarnations of the original score (or, what was allowed to be released from the original score), Film Score Monthly has announced the complete original score -- remastered from original elements -- and including the main title song as sung by Nat King Cole:

That score was by Johnny Green!  I worked with him in 1987, not too long before he died.  I dearly loved him.
