Throw the bums out!
This policy trailer is played in front of every screening at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, TX, where they take their movies VERY seriously. Good for them! I think their policy should be de rigueur in every major theater around the world. If you have to text--and if you have to take a crap--please do it outside.
Metal Fillings (amalgam)
Fewer and fewer people are asking this question, but occasionally we still do get it.
Are metal fillings safe?
The answer to this is, yes.
There have been studies done by the American Dental Association
and the Centers for Disease Control that both state that metal fillings
are safe to use.
In fact in certain cases we still use this material.
It is rare however, do to the fact that most people do not want the metal look.
You can go on the internet and find sites that tell you the horrors of amalgam.
But you can find a lot of stuff on the internet that isn't necessarily true.
If you have questions ask your dentist.

Forgotten Movie Songs #19: "The sun whose rays" from TOPSY-TURVY
This is, of course, not a song that was written for the movies, though it IS one of the cinema's most moving songs.

Soda Pop
Everyone on planet earth knows that drinking soda pop is bad for your teeth
Both the sugar and the acids lead to tooth decay.
Even though we all know this fact however, does not translate into
anyone of us no longer drinking it.
I myself throughly enjoy a Dr. Pepper when I am out to eat.
So what to do?
Do we all just end up looking like this guy?
Hopefully the answer to that is, no.
Simply do as the beer commercials say and, "Drink Responsibly".
Simply limit your soda drinking to meal times.
Then after your meal is done take one last drink of water to help rinse the sugars out.
Sipping on soda throughout the day is the worst thing you can do.
If you can't stop drinking soda pop then simply do it in a way that would
minimize the chance that you would get cavities.
