Rumour has it that Arnie only realized what we do up here WHEN he came and made "The 6th Day" in Vancouver. Had he refused to make that movie, we may not be in such a rut... As it stands, following that film he refuses to film in this country.
- letting directors make their own decisions regarding venue?
- allowing persons of matching gender equal rights with regards to marriage?

Not that I was a typesetter, but there's FAR more errors in the typesetting service now. We have to call an office in New York to make corrections, then they call India....reverse the process for any questions on their end and you get lots o'confusion and late orders.
But hey, they work for about a buck an hour so it's all good right? Plenty of fast food jobs available right here in the States to keep the economic numbers nice and inflated.

Now, I don't know too much about Stargate (wish I knew more), but it's my understanding that the stylised A with the circle above it is the symbol for Earth. If this show is on a different planet, why would they have Earth's symbol in the show's name?
