QOTD

'Gallegher pushed through soundproofed curtains at the end of a short corridor and found himself in what appeared to be the foyer of an ancient theater, circa 1980, when plastics were the great fad. He smelled out the bar, drank expensively priced cheap liquor, and, fortified, entered the theater itself. It was nearly full. The great screen -- a Magna, presumably -- was filled with people doing things to a spaceship. Either an adventure film or a newsreel,  Gallegher realized.' (Lewis Padgett, "The Proud Robot")
