I'd feel the same if it was "Citizen Kane"... important cultural stuff deserves to be preserved. Just "let it go" is not the purpose of this forum. That's why there are people here doing their own preservations/restorations, and the various efforts such as the webpage(s) and facebook page, petition, etc. It's not about whining, it's about acting.
There are three other forums I belong to with similar aims for other topics (not Star Wars), just so you know that it's not just some weird SW fixation.
