Damnit.  I keep forgeting this kid wasn't around when Star Wars came out.

O.K. I admit it. I even saw it the second time at a drive-in. Anyone know
what that is?

Now, I also have a piece of advice. If more than two people find fault with
an area in a fic, that should be a warning bell for the author that that area
needs to be worked on. Most of the folk here realize that these are alpha and
beta drafts we're seeing and are very genteel with thier reviews and know
that writer's ego's are fragile things. But if you choose to ignore the
advice offered, be prepared to be ravaged by the net wolves when you publish.
'Cause if it's picked up here, you can guarantee it will be picked up out
there, and a lot of other folk are not as forgiving.

Just something to keep in mind.
