It's been about that long for me too, Stephen.

The only thing I can remember is from my altarboy days: Ad Deum qui laetificat juventutem meam. "To God, the joy of my youth."

And a couple of other tidbits that were drilled into my head waaaaay back then. [Roll Eyes]

For some odd reason this discussion about auditoria reminded my of that old Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck cartoon where they race across the country and beat the hell out of each other for the "Million Box". Maybe AMC will come up with something like that, with a single seat in each tiny little box. Of course, all shows would be interlocked from the same print of "The Cat in the Hat". And being a part of that experience means you will have died and gone to hell.

Given the recent scandals about Catholic priests you should be grateful it was only drilled into your head [Eek!] [Roll Eyes]

Actually Dick, I currently have a lawsuit against them for emotional harm caused me from being one of the few altarboys that did not have relations with a priest.... [beer]

In England we usually use the term 'Screens'.

I.e calling the room a 'screen'. Which is wrong, but still it does ok.

-----------------------

What screen is Elf in?

SWAT is in screen 5.

Love Actually is showing in two screens.

This cinema has 12 screens.

Someone has been sick in screen 9.

Well that's just an example of the time-honored literary device of synecdoche (which, unfortunately, comes from Greek... I think).
