Thanks for the URL, Ann. I did not initially recognize MacNutt. Still, he shall be missed.

Good morning and thanks for the link Ann. I started another thread to alert members to this opportunity to sign the guest book and leave a message which I have already done. I felt it might get more attention than the stickie as those who have already posted there might not revisit the RIP thread.

Morning all.

Ann, Thanks for the link. Somehow MacNutt's picture didn't quite seem like I expected him to look.

But then again Sean, you probably did not know what to expect when we took a peek at each other on iChat either!

Good morning from the office. Going to see DaVinci Code this aft. Don't want to, but since I am leading a study on it tomorrow night, I guess I should

Sean, I felt the same way. I think the pic of Gerry with the long hair was what I was expecting. Still, we are what we are in the final analysis.

Matt, if you have read the book, I would be interested in knowing if the book was better than the movie. Merci.

Marc and Matt - I read the book - wasn't that impressed with Dan Brown's writing style, but the story was OK. Then I got the Audiobook and listened to that - the text translated very well into audio - I didn't listen to the stuff at the end though.

Then I saw the movie and realized that either I wasn't paying attention during the first two exposures, or the movie was a real departure, so I listened again after seeing the movie and found that the movie is very true to the book except in a few places that would have extended the movie without moving the plot along and one other spot that I won't tell you about.

This time I kept listening through the screenwriters interview and a talk that Dan Brown gave somewhere - not directly about the book, but his take on the broader subject matter. He also spoke a bit about all the "code debunkers" that have come forward.

I think I'll listen again just to make sure I haven't missed anything else.

Matt: the most important thing to remember is that this is a work of fiction
