I hope you'll be able to fit one of these events into your travel
plans. Thanks for providing an interesting and challenging question.
I'm a silent film fan myself (with a particular interest in Harold
Lloyd and Buster Keaton), and I found quite a bit of good reading
while I was seeking "The Phantom."
One more thing: I'm tickled pink by your Google Answers user name. My
nickname among my fellow Researchers is "Pinky." Wish I'd thought of
adding "Princess" to it. ;-)
