Re: Discussion

<t>Greg:<br/> <br/> That sounds like a good way to handle it. Don't you all wish that movies and books would be classified in order of "goodness?" I've always hated going to Blockbuster to find a movie and never really knowing if I made a good choice until it is too late. They say not to judge a boo...
