Friends: A few times lately we've quickly evolved from communication to a bit on the angry side. It's kind of funny here in the intercyberezone. We read someone's posts and we start to build an image of them hunched over the computer in some weird little or gigantic modern theatre in whereverville. But we do not really know them. Knowing more about most of you than most of you know about others I can tell you that our readers and writers are both big time and super small time operators, they are straight, gay, male, female, young, old, born again Christian and atheist, they show art films and teen horror, some can thread up in their sleep and others never touch a projector, black, white, brown, thin and hefty, some are laconic and thoughtful and others are verbose and shoot from the hip, sharp as a tack and thick as a brick, some are owners and others really wish they were, kind and considerate or short tempered and blunt, some are employees and some you'd never hire or wish you didn't. Some of us are raking it in and some of us are wondering will we ever. We've got yellow dog Democrats and rock ribbed Republicans. Plus more than a few wild eyed Libertairian and Naderites. Some want to buy a theater and some would love to sell. Some of our theatres need armed guards and some receive 9 year olds like we were a day care center. We're not anywhere near the same, not even close. So.... please work on the respectful and open minded communication. We do all have a perspective to share. Mine is very different than yours as are all of our view points. We don't add anything to the converstaion when we get short tempered or cranky. Let's keep it on the positive. Thank you.
