This is the topic for my flame of the day. Why do the producers (or whoever it is) use scenes from their films that give away plot lines, or punch lines to jokes? /* ---------- */ Another one is the rules to "Gremlins": i) Don't expose them to bright light, and sunlight can kill them; ii) Don't let them get near water; iii) Never, no matter how much they beg and cry, ever feed them after midnight. In one TV ad, they tell you TO THE LAST DETAILS what happens if you violate these rules. Tacky, I'd say. Jeff Bowles Lisle, IL
