Local movie houses

I am sick and tired of having to complain every single time I go to the movies in our town. Either the sound level is not correct or the projector bulb is too dim or the projection is not aligned with the screen or the focus is off. I can’t see a picture anywhere where the registration is correct(causing a slight shake in the image).

I’m asking local movie reviewers to please include a review of the venue they saw the picture in to help raise the overall standards of movie projection in our city.

At this point I refuse to see pictures at the Citadel Mall AMC because the quality is so bad and the management does not seem to care.

Charleston County Library

Todays Post & Courier congratulates Georgetown on their national library award. Well, good for them, but as an ardent user of our own Charleston County Library system I have to say that we certainly do not deserve any awards. The stacks are filled with garbage when with the funding we have and for as long as we have had a public library system, there is no reason why we shouldn’t have a world class book collection by now.

I challenge the librarians themselves to ensure that the stacks in all our branches are filled with world class literature and only the best in nonfiction titles. I think we can start by losing the vast collection of outdated travel books, eh?
