I'm sorry, but I can't tell you what showing it was or how packed the theatre was or even the date for that matter. I do know it was not opening day, as my friend had seen it before I did (and was using his bike tire gauge as a mock light saber).

I can tell you that my mom loved science fiction anything(SW, ST, 2001, Space 1999, etc), and I got my sci fi education from her (Dad had no interest). She would do the (top loader) tape recorder thing for just sci fi films, and we would listen to them over and over while playing out the movies in our heads. Cheap entertainment that made me imagine. Do kids even do that anymore? I Doubt it.

I went to get the SW tape today and I couldn't find it. I was absolutely horrified and panicked. I thought 'great, now these guys are gonna think I was lying the whole time'. I searched for about two hours and it finally turned up in all of it's FedMart glory. I haven't found the ESB tape yet, but wouldn't have knowingly thrown it out. I will find it too, but first things first.

Puggo, I got your pm and the tape will be sent to you, just give me a couple of days to send it out. Please feel free to share your initial observations after you listen to it.

I appreciate the Scofield title as well.
