In fact, if I stumbled across this poll without the context of the other conversation, and if it were only about the matter of not having the SE or the PT (which is not quite what we were trying to get at in the other thread) I would not have even given the matter much thought, I would simply vote "no" without even questioning myself.

Yes, because I am sure that we would still be using stop motion beyond the year 2000 if it hadn't been for ILM. In fact, I doubt that if it had not been for ILM, then we should have never landed on the moon either. I realize ILM has done a lot, I am not over looking that. But give mankind some credit, if ILM hadn't been around to accomplish all it had as far as FX go, then somebody else would have.

Yeah, someone else would've invented the long lasting lightbulb too... Edison just happened to be in the right place at the right time...
And what do the yes folks need to explain? Is this a message board or what? It it INSANE to ask for an explanation and/or reasoning for their vote? Or should this just be a 29 vote mix of yes and no posts?
