Your quest is a noble one, and the efforts of people like Robert Anthony are noble as well, no question. I just want to flesh out what the purpose of my original post was a bit more.
I just have my doubts about the abilities of we, a small and strange slice of the general public, to have any impact on the decision making of studio and theater chain executives, when profit is not simply the prime concern, but the ONLY concern that drives them. I could make some remarks here about negative consequences that arise from the choice we've made as a society to entrust an integral part of our cultural heritage to corporations, but I know the limits of debate around here.
I'll just conclude by saying that these brown spots are just another negative consequence of such a choice, and I have my doubts about our ability to have an impact on the decision making that's behind them. This is why I resort to sarcastic posts such as my first post in this thread. However, show me an online petition about this issue, and I'll gladly sign it. And I will make my friends aware of this issue.

I just wanted to thank you for your recommendation of Happy Rhodes a while back. I've come to really enjoy her music. Why she hasn't gotten more attention, I don't know. Oh wait, those corporations again....
