Personally I think they shouldn't.

Maybe author a movie, but not star in it. They where great at the time (70's and 80's) but now they would risk looking outdated and desperately trying to cling to some sort of success.

So either produce something truly "completely different", or no. Leave those outstanding movies (and of course TV sketches) as they where. Don't do a "Godfather III" or a "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" or a "Blues Brothers 2000" (and on). Please.

Bugger.

Comment Re:PHP support? (Score 1) 260

I need to be a little more agnostic and work with more than one format (many users still expect .doc and .xls from sites).

And besides, I would rather OOo or PHP provide me with a good API than delve into the XML "by hand"

Italian Type L:

- Symmetrical (alternating current has no polarity!)
- Compact (you can have two wall sockets in the same space as one Shuko or BS)
- Earthed (the "euro-plug" is cool, but is missing the middle bit)
- Small (little kids can't electrocute themselves)
- Linear (the prongs are parallel to the flex, so extension-cords are mighty simple)
