I'm transferring this to net.flame, because it belongs here.

In article <407@houxh.UUCP> waynez@houxh.UUCP (W.ZAKARAS) gibbers:

Holy Goshers, Wayne!  People writing movie reviews who have opinions!  What
IS this world coming to?

Look, I'll type slow so even you can understand me.  I am VERY GLAD that the
Leepers constantly write movie reviews; while I may not always agree with
them, they are quite well written and explain why they feel one way or
another about a film.  The function of net.movies is mainly (but not
entirely) movie reviews... and obviously the Leepers (and Peter Reiher
(sp?)) put a lot of time into just that.  As to book reviews, if they have
something to do with the movie, I don't mind -- and the books describing the
making of 2001 are definately that.  So bugger up, I want them to continue
writing, you movie-reviewer misanthrope, you (boy, Reader's DIgest IS good
for something!).

Dear me, I seem to have flamed; so much for my mild-mannered image...
