I take some exception to that statement from what I have heard is the Japanese
are eager to get access to all the film & movie rights because with
the advent of things like CD-I and new forms of entertainment they would
love to use these things in their future products and software.

Sorry for the digression but I just had to through my hat in the ring but
I am not sure what sort of positive effect as Mr Reagan said the Japanese
will have on Hollywood.  Time will tell.
will have onxi Hollywood
