Every idea I had was in the pile. The ones starting with "Recently I've been thinking..." and "Over the past four years...." The dissertations on the ghostly Harvard advising system.

The production survived despite the numerous delays, and now that the movie is finally poised to debut. The accumulated buzz (as well as the impressive special effects) should help the film's chances at the box office...
