This thread was inspired by our friend and colleague Prestan (Jordan). The idea is to go through the movie looking for significant quotes in acrostic order. (For anyone who does needlepoint or cross-stitch ... THIS might be a great idea for a sampler!!) Our doughty Vice-Council For Flames And Summary Combustions should own the first place. As but a humble Evil Genius, I begin with the second. B is for ... "Burn it."  |

("A," as Prestan/Jordan noted over in the "Cleric" thread, is "At last, peace reigns in the heart of man.")
[It could also stand for "Aedh," who was the narrative speaker of the lyric Yeats poem that Partridge was reading at the time that Preston assassinated him.]
