Washington, Computer Sci Lines: 21 I thought you would all be interested to know that all this talk about wombats has reached the ever-vigilant attention of Hollywood promoters, and that a slew of wombat-related horror films will be coming your way this summer. Jamie Lee Curtis has been signed to star in "Amittyville IV: House of Satanistic Communistic Wombats" (she will be portraying Laura Creighton), and that Stephen King's latest novel, "Willy the Wombat", is being rushed into pre-production. Also, several church groups are urging the creation of grade-school training films to combat the wombat menace -- the test film, previewed for the Joint Chiefs of Staff and an "Entertainment Tonight" correspondent, shows how children can avoid wombat-incurred fallout by crawling underneath their desks. Also, the Captain & Tenille are getting back together for a new 45 recording, "Wombat Love". Just thought you'd like to know.
