First we have to get the French to accept it. Without them, we have *nothing.* |

I like it, though. It'd have to be a computerized scoring system that can actually measure independent "splip!" noises, so there's no Paul Hamm-esque controversies over scoring. |

About [po]'s link: if you ever get a chance to watch the 1954 motion picture "The Dam Busters", pay close attention to the editing and dialog of the climactic scene. It was the model for the attack on the Death Star in the original Star Wars. Some of the dialog was lifted word-for-word. |
