[HPFGU-OTChatter] to SF bay area movie fans

| For those
| who don't know, there is a service called DVS, descriptive 
| video service,
| and there are several DVS equipped theaters around the area.  
| However, none
| of them are showing the new movie in the theater with the 
| DVS.  You know,
| multi-screen facilities.  They all have their DVS equipment 
| in the smaller
| theaters and have told my friend they will not move the HP 
| movie there till
| it "isn't so popular anymore".  One theater manager even told her in
| response to her question about why, that when it came to 
| putting the movie
| in which theater, blind people didn't count and would have to 
| wait.  Well, I
| was livid on her behalf when I heard this!

[Lee]:
Don't Get Me Started!!!!!  I don't even bother trying to find a DVS facility
any more because the movie I might be interested in is *Never* in the
theater of those multiplexes which has the DVS.  To me, that's seems
discriminatory and I find that very sad in this day and age.  Anyway, I
usually go with my sweetheart who fills in what I'm lacking (which usually
isn't very much.) So far, the movie that gave me the most difficult time as
far as knowing what was going on was GOF, so I got the DVS VHS...they don't
have the Potter movies with descriptive on DVD, too bad.

Anyway, Sherry, I feel your pain and find the "token DVS installation" thing
to be almost as bad as not having it at all, IMHO.

Good luck on finding an empathetic OOTP Companion.

Cheers,

Lee :-)
