"For even better presentation, why not add a slide projector and run a slide show right before the movie starts? It gives your audience
finding their seats something to watch while they await the start of the show. "

I agree David... I wasn't meaning to pick on him (Sorry Chip if you are reading). I give credit to anyone who goes to the extremes he did just to HAVE a screening room. Even though I don't agree with all the statments (Slide Projectors to give the audience something to watch before the show oh boy) his screening room is a lot better then my non-existant one!

Brad, you're pretty darn Chipper yourself!!!
