More info from Richard:
Addendum on the movie passes: These passes are not good for the first two
weeks of a first run engagement, and are not good for special attractions and
motion pictures where prohibited by contractural obligations. These tickets
expire November 30, 1996. So, if in doubt, check with the Movies at Briarwood.

And if you call 769-8780, the prerecorded voice message will
tell you which films you can't use the passes for.

These are "VIP" passes, then? I'll bid $6.

Are these good for only 2 movies, or are these something you can use over
and over again until 11/30/96?

RE #6 Each ticket is to admit one person to one movie. They cannot be reused.

Ok, so these are movie "tickets", not season "passes".

damn damn dan damn damn
15 are you insane
there is no practical purpose to bidding 15
look
I calculated this, general admissions for matinees are $4.50, *2 makes it
$9. for an evening show it costs $6.50, *2=13, so no matter what, if you
bid 15, you might as well be paying for two evening tickets, plus popcorn,
but your not getting popcorn. if you were to by popcorn and a drink, it'd
cost you anywhere from $3 to $7
damn
i almost had them, you did this to spite me
there is no point in matching, let alone topping 15
damn
oh

I believe the "purpose" in bidding $15 was to give Grex more money.

I'm reminded of the urban legends involving a guy who makes
a bet that he can get such-and-such-woman to touch his penis...

I am trying to get Grex and Arbornet to cooperate with HVCN in a joint
effort to create a community calendar -- and this discussion, drifts
to medical problems. I posit there is little "wang envy" on this
system. Let's go see Independence Day, all you SF fans, who are not
dating that weekend. <adbarr can drift, too!>
