04/16/2005 02:26 AMOdd to think that a mere six years ago, I stood in line for four hours
one morning to get my Episode I tickets, and the midnight showing sold
out within a half an hour. I was at the three AM showing... Not the
case yesterday as I strolled up at half past six to buy, for the last
time, opening night tickets for the last Star Wars feature film.
According to several reports, advance tickets went on sale Friday;
check local listings for availability in your area.

01/10/2004 12:30 AMLast issue, I reviewed my New Year's resolutions for 2003. The
resolutions I made on behalf of the industry, that is, not my personal
resolutions You'll remember, I hope, that I noted the industry made a
rather hapless effort in carrying out the resolutions but, undaunted,
I'm back to propose a set that we should all try to carry out during
2004 (and beyond, of course). Hope, as they say, springs eternal. Or,
as one Swedish proverb puts it:

Jack Valenti says stupid things --
really, really stupid things
08/03/2004 07:46 PMTim Wu has rounded up some of the dumbest things that Jack Valenti
said -- and he's found some real howlers, things that make Jack's
infamous condemnation of the VCR ("the Boston Stranger of the American
film industry") look like a walk in the park.
On the nascent cable industry, in 1974
"[Cable will become] a huge parasite in the marketplace, feeding and
fattening itself off of local television stations and copyright owners
of copyrighted material. We do not like it because we think it wrong
and unfair."
On the dangers on media concentration, 1984 Op-Ed
"Will a democratic society allow just three corporate entities to
wield unprecedented dominion over television, the most decisive voice
in the land? There are now only three national networks .... There
will never be more than three national networks."
On the public domain, 1995
"A public domain work is an orphan. No one is responsible for its
life. But everyone exploits its use, until that time certain when it
becomes soiled and haggard, barren of its previous virtues. How does
the consumer benefit from the steady decline of a film's quality?"

"The sacred institution of marriage should not
be redefined by a few activist judges," said the President who was
appointed by five activist Supreme Court Justices.
The man who, between the two major candidates in 2000, got the fewer
amount of votes went on to affirm that "all Americans have a
right to be heard in this debate."

Unitarianism: good enough for two
presidents, not good enough for Texas
05/19/2004 02:47 AMThe state of Texas has denied Unitarians tax-exempt religious status
because the church "does not have one system of belief." As Julia
notes, Presidents
John Adams and John Quincy Adams were sufficiently convinced of the
Unitarians' religiosity that they actually
were Unitarians.
Never before -- not in this state or any other -- has a government
agency denied Unitarians tax-exempt status because of the group's
religious philosophy, church officials say. Strayhorn's ruling clearly
infringes upon religious liberties, said Dan Althoff, board president
for the Denison congregation that was rejected for tax exemption by
the comptroller's office.

GM in trouble: "If you erased the
company name from the balance sheet and showed it to a forensic
accountant, the recommended treatment would probably be to seek
protection from creditors by filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. "
GM's troubles are as much a result of the
exploding costs of health
care as they are due to the company's
dropping market
share. In
Canada increasing
health care costs (PDF with many
charts) are taking a greater and greater share of
government expenditures. In the US
it's hurting big employers and
regular people.
But either way the problem doesn't seem likely to get better any time
soon.
