 I remeber those days, though 9600 was the slowest in my area by the
time I got into it in the early 90's...

I really figured this was the end, but again, you've gotten me thinking... More
of the story could definately be told, but let's hope it's a story *they* want
to tell and not one the studio wants filmed, if you know what I mean...

 RG> Yeah.  The first time I saw Gloria Foster was in an episode of Law &

Yes. Very believable. Did good in Reloaded as well, but the movie was kinda
rushed during that part.

I wasn't really disappointed with the way they did it. I knew it had to happen
some way. I thought the Merovingian's reference to "the eyes of the
Oracle" fit
in with what was concocted...
