[Vision2020] Star Wars unintended consequences

[Dan Carscallen]

So, since the show earned $158.5 million, that's a net loss . . .

I guess . . .

I'd love to wait for the DVD, but the 10 year old Star Wars freak in my
house is dying to see it.  So's his dad . . .

I just heard a report on NPR about absenteeism at work last week after
the 
opening of the new Star Wars movie.  Experts (whoever they are) were 
predicting a loss of $626 million dollars in workplace productivity
because 
of people calling in sick after attending midnight premieres last
Thursday 
night.  And I'll wait for the DVD.
