Heinlein fans: the current movie Glory Road is not based on Heinlein's novel of the same name. There is no time travel, no heroic quest, no Igli (my favorite character in the book), and no topless heroine with... Well, if you're a Heinlein fan, you know the attributes his women were generally endowed with. Sorry. The movie version of Heinlein's Glory Road is still unmade. Although, considering what Hollywood did to Starship Troopers, this may be a blessing. ---- I think I see a future Capclave panelist. Don't you, Ernest? ---- Respectfully, "Another Munich We Just Can't Afford. Eric Jablow We're Gonna Send In the Eighty-Second Airborne!" Herndon, VA -- The Rolling Stones, "Highwire" USA
