When I worked in trucking, we hauled some old stored movies from Universal to some storage facility in Pennsylvania. Kind of neat.

Well this didn't pan out. They no longer have the master print of the movie. I was told by a PR person that about twenty years ago they gave most of their silent film masters to museums and Film preservation institutions. Anyone have any ideas on how I can find out where this master print is now?

I like South Park, but seriously, if that's all you watch then I feel very sad for you. That show gets funnier the more things you know. That's the way it is with any comedy... the more educated you are about everything, the funnier comedy is.

I spend little time in front a television. I do like History Channel and a few other things, but most those I can just download off the net.
