"Silent Running" with Bruce Dern a hippie sci-fi movie. You'll have to pack them in several Duplo egg pods around a central core. Or four of those trans dark blue corner domes from one of the monorails. (23 years ago, 23-Nov-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

Hey all! I picked up the newly released soundtrack for The Fellowship of the Ring, and I must say, it is *fantastic.* It has a good mix of classical orchestral styled pieces, many of which are rather Wagnerian, and some Celtic pieces.
