It's not up to Branson. Branson doesn't license and regulate to that extent. More to the point, this part of the country doesn't believe in intrusive government laws and regulations. If you want those go then go vacation in California. They love 'em out there on the left coast! Here we think for ourselves. Best of all, we're allowed to.

Bein' "backward" has its advantages. Again, caveat emptor!

Well the problem has been taken care of, thanks I don't believe in using a sledgehammer when a small tap can do the job. I believe in first writing a letter informing the right person of the problem. That is usually all it takes. Not sure if it was the complaint on the survey, the complaint letter to the owner or coming on here, but someone took notice.

It's all good now.

Well I notice the sales people are not right in your face when you line up to go into a show anymore. That was prevalent at one time. I am glad that stopped. Maybe the theatre owners had something to do with stopping that.

You stay "backward" it's just fine with me and those who come to visit. Down home atmosphere and we love it.
