First off if Foote writes the way he speaks in that film, I can't wait to get his trilogy. But Burns being Burns, he left me with more questions than answers and with the blessing of the great Admin Moderator, I'd like to post them in another vanity post. I'll re-ping some of you in a few days.
Thanks again to everyone who posted in this thread. I really appreciate it.
