       | No shows in Camelot? Outrageous

         | On second thought, let's not go to Camelot. It is a silly
         | place.

       | Very effective website. It already knew my location (yay
       | surveillance) and would have made it very easy to buy tickets for
       | a showing right down the street from my house.

         | Meh, just IP geotagging. The site thought I'm in Enumclaw, WA
         | ("Renton is closest cinema? I'm not driving to Renton. Hey,
         | wait a minute..."). Take a look at a map and you'll realize
         | that's a bit of a hike from Redmond. Browser should block
         | anything more precise with a permission dialog.

         | I polled my kids. All of them down to the youngest (19) enjoyed
         | Holy Grail a lot. My 24-year-old says his friends reference it
         | in conversation regularly. We're not totally out of touch yet!!
