Too bad it backfired. But these guys in Washington State were so dumb at the time of the carbon arc days that they did not know the difference between a carbon stub and a cigarette. In fact, the fire inspector "lit one off" (USN Slang) in the booth. It was the only place he could do it.  |  IP: Logged Paul Cassidy Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 549 From: Auckland, New Zealand Registered: Aug 2001 posted 12-17-2001 12:42 AM                        I spent most of the time hanging out of mine to tell people to not park in the cinema Parking it had a big sign saying CINEMA Parking ONLY.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 12-17-2001 08:42 AM                     "WOW ! is that a foot activated change over?" Thats all there was in most mid-west theatres. Wall mounted buttons were rare. A friend form Portland came to chicago once to visit and also found the pedals odd. MArk @ GTS  |  IP: Logged
