A short,prefacing story:
My daughter (16 y/o) was at a two-day journalism convention yesterday and today. The school newspaper staff went, including some of her best friends. It was held at the Peabody ...
... flash forward to tonight, as she asked me to put "Pearl Harbor" on and out came this stunning revelation: She was griping with a male friend that the movie they watched on HBO overnight wasn't in its' Original Aspect Ratio!!
Her male friend then told her that his mom (an electronically challenged individual ) can't stand those "black bars" and when she put in a DVD the other night she wanted him to "get rid of those bars!" He told her that he couldn't do it and launched into a great explanation ...
She, however, still didn't get it .. :frowning:
Anyway, I guess there's still hope for the teens today!
(And sorry if this isn't the place to post this - I trust it'll get put in the right place if it's not )
