I didn't read that article...now, I'm really *PISSED!*   Too bad, INFO was on
hiatus for a while...maybe they could have printed a retraction (on an
interview?) or at least "leaked" a rumor that script changes or post production
decisions might result in NONE of these scenes appearing in the final cut.
Then again, they might be saving all this for Robocop III :)
