Well, Tom Moyer "Luxury" theaters will stop showing the commercials on July 7th due to overwhelming negative response. If they ever try this in your town, get vocal! Businesses do make mistakes, but they usually listen if the customers scream loud enough. To all of you locals who took time to write, or went out of your way to go elsewhere, thank you! -- Keith Lofstrom uucp: {ucbvax,decvax,chico,pur-ee,cbosg,ihnss}!teklabs!tekcad!keithl CSnet: keithl@tek ARPAnet:keithl.tek@rand-relay
