Or Marcia if that heresay is true, but, well, you know.

Chances are, that is a very real possibility. We now have a fully restored King Kong thanks to remastering and lost footage found and all that to put back in what the censors took out. It may be that our children and our children's children will have to suffer with the SE's but seventy or so years after Lucas eventually kicks the bucket, the original version will be restored to the public. Why? Because at that point, the smokescreen of "artistic vision" will be seen as tha sham it is *AND* the CGI in the SE will not look so hot anymore (if they ever did) so the only people interested in the films will be those looking at them from a historical perspective, which means the originals will be what they want, and they'll get them if they have to painstakinging reconstruct the visual information by hand.
