I have 3 months ! So give me a freakin' break will ya !?? I've learn all of it in 4 days because the old film handler was quitting and i'm trying my very best to put this theater to par. Nothing was ever tried here because the old 25 years experience(my ass) film handler would not want to try new thing or he would not take time to read anything. So he did try the Kelmar system but without the "Filmguard" ! (Go figure) So he just dump the Kelmar system. I told my boss that i would love to try it, so this is why i ask questions to make sure i do it right and to make sure that the result is 100% what i expect. I tried the Filmguard and it is awesome, now i need to talk to my boss to get 2 more so all my projectors will have one. Oh and Bruce make sure you don't choke on that bottle !  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 05-30-2008 06:52 PM                        Rene: Relax....the above has been an example of a good-natured tease from your friends at Film-Tech. In other words, they're giving you crap....meaning you've been accepted into the group and you now have a license to give it right back to 'em! Have fun, but be prepared...these guys can take it AND dish it out.  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia.

He made it during another thread of how wonderful FG is and everyone came up with another 'stunning' way it could be used in everyday life...that was his. It was all very funny at the time. Every now and then we forget that there are folks here (long-time and short time) that come along and may not get the joke. It doesn't mean we're not going to post it, it just means some may take it the wrong way. Such is life, I'm afraid. Do a search and all knowledge will be yours.  |  IP: Logged Rene Ferron Film Handler Posts: 52 From: New Brunswick, Canada Registered: Feb 2008 posted 06-01-2008 10:02 AM                     No problem, i needed to vent a bit and just make sure that some guys knew that i was a "newbie". Yes i am ! But i just LOVE my job with a passion and i would not change it for nothing.  |  IP: Logged
