Massachusetts --> IMAX

The first IMAX was created in Boston, Massachusetts; and they have Leonard Nimoy's voice as the host of the Theater. (Because he was born in Boston.)

No, one word was Aristocrats, and the other Aristocats. Not the same word, one has an extra "r" in it, the other not :-)

Well Thomas my eye sight is not the greatest, plus the monitor is five feet from where I park my butt.
That is why I don't mind friends pointing out my errors. OOPS Sten is not on my friends list, but I should fix that.
