...Hoosier histrionics. As his constituents cheered on the good kids--the lithe, clean-cut basketball players who were dominating Columbus North High School--Furgeson paused to think about the other kids. Before becoming mayor, he spent 22 years managing the local Pizza King franchise. Every year he had to hire up to 200 teenagers, many of them dropouts, just to keep 10 full-time positions staffed.

If they all put down their tools tomorrow, the U.S. wouldn't be arguing about whether it is in a recession...

...horrible, not because of some conspiracy against digital technology on the part of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. All the technical achievement in the world can't make up for a horrendously bad script. If Lucas wants to save the movies, he had better hire some of the writers who helped him turn the original Star Wars and Indiana Jones films into the smart, action-packed and interestingly plotted films that we all love. Georgia Manry Portland, Oregon, U.S. Those who prefer film over digital images should awaken from their chemically induced haze! Digital is faster, cleaner...
