So, how can you tell them apart at slightly-greater-than conversational distance? Just curious.
"Carolina Eastern BBQ" = Vinegar based pork - just the color of the meat
then you have ketchup-based, which is distinctively red, and mustard-based, which is yellow. Pretty simple. And if you're in the carolinas, BBQ = Pork, not chicken.
You spent all your time trying to look intelligent that you didn't answer the question.
Does this movie, "THX1138", made in 1971, not appear to be blatantly taken from "Brave New World" ?
"Brave New World" was first published in 1932. This was before Ray Bradbury, Phillip Dick, or Isaac Asimov. And as for "Lord of the Rings", everyone knows it's adapted from a book. That's common knowledge.
My point is that this movie seems eerily similar to the book, yet there is no mention of the book in this thread, or anywhere else I've looked about this film.
My point is that a line of copies doesn't work - the average user doesn't care about the inside workings - they want results.
That's true, but the average user isn't the one making the decision in a corporation. Considering that
Windows XP Pro + Office XP == $800
and
any Linux OS + OpenOffice == $0
If Linux were to be as user friendly as Windows (to the average person), then it would already have an inherent price advantage -- and that looks pretty good to any corporate honcho that calls the shots. I agree that *nix has a long was to go, but we shouldn't underestimate how important it is that it's free.

Does anyone else think this movie sounds like a ripoff of Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World" ?
