RinConRon, Ah yes, the Tin Man. And to think I know that without ever having seen the movie. Goes to show how all-encompassing icons of common knowledge can be.

As further enforcement of the above, my senior year in high school, our English class was given a fairly lengthy test on "The Iliad" and "The Odyssey." I aced that test with 100% without ever having read either. What can I say? Trying to read them bored me. Fortunately, the answers to that test had been floating in the general sphere for like twenty kinds of forever. - Holly
