Clearly your grasp of history is almost as non-existent as your sense
of humour....


On this particular occasion in direct inverse proportion to your sense of
self-importance perhaps?


Or you're inability to accept that you were in error, perhaps?

I don't see what pointing out your error has to do with anyone's
sense
of self-importance.


Not necessarily the pointing out but the manner?


Two self-evident facts pointed out succintly and without elaboration.
Obviously you're pretty clueless when it comes to what counts as
"self-importance," as well. What's up, can't behave like an adult and
accept you ****ed up?


Quite obviously you can't read English. Go back and try again.

When you've learnt to read and write English feel free to raise the subject
again.

No, just a bad bit of editing when I changed what I originally started
to type.

Well, **** me, but obviously I've conned all those editors and
publishers who've paid for my writing in the past! Still, I think a
bit of bad editing when I changed what I first started to type pales
into insignificance compared to your stunning belief that the film
industry didn't exist before 1939.

Flattery will get you nowhere. Keep reading and make an effort to
understand.

It's true some people are easily misled, but I'd be interested to know how
you arrive at the conclusion that I believe that there was no film industry
before 1939.

The station - which you said "predates the film industry" - dates from
1939.
