Quoting TheMadMartian:

That may be how you understand it, probably because it makes more sense that way, but that isn't what it says.


Amazing to see how the same words can be seen/understood in different ways by different people. For me, this rule is, for once, cristal clear, and I totally agree with Hal on this one.

But your understanding has no reason to be better/worse than ours, that only means that on 500 000 users, we'll have many understanding "black" and many "white".

That once again proves that rules are badly designed. They should say what we want to obtain, and not how. Knowing where we have to go would help to use the good road. But when many people are on roads without knowing where they want to go, they have few chances to reach the same point.

To go further, very few fields fields have a description about what we want to have in it. Rules just say where or how to reproduce data, with all the problems we see on this forum when following them leads to non sense.

No arguement there.
No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.
The Centauri learned this lesson once.
We will teach it to them again.
Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.

I did change the original name back to ''La guerre du feu"., as I had discovered that 3.5 program does NOT do what 3.1 did  and that was  If you 'changed' or added the original title in, your data, it now reflected that change and there was  NO way I'd remember the 'phrase'  -La guerre du feu"..      (plus I also think of the French language as a rip off of the English language in terms of the closeness of the words.. the name La guerre du feu"  looks like The Guardian of the Fire (or flame) ..      )
But now I see that this isn't the case . If I drop the French name in and then do a search for 'Quest', I get "Quest for Fire" .. before it would have been 'buried' in my collection under " La guerre du feu" and even that name would have been in the Q section under sort titles..
My initial argument was: this is a region One title and case and artwork and retail sale.  When this Movie was playing on the big screens back in 1981 it was -in all the marquees and newspaper advertising as well as 'critics corner' - Quest For Fire . There is no spoken language, per say . and the film was backed by Canadian funding Canadian location ( as well as Scotland and Africa)., but it had a french crew..
I see the title of The Bear is also L'Ours  ( same director) .

Regardless I DID change the contribution back- AS THIS IS THE WHOLE IDEA OF WHAT THESE FORUMS ARE ABOUT..  we all work together and agree on the subject in hand and not to trail off to insulting each other ...
