Can't believe that on December 1 1989 I was standing under a tree at our offices wondering what the hell I was doing standing outside a century old building, never realizing for a second that I'd just found my life's work.

Mention a tree, show a picture of yourself standing in front of a sign.

Hey-you look good bald! Kinda Like Peter Lorre in MAD LOVE. or Kojak with glasses. Or the alien in FRANKENSTEIN MEETS THE SPACE MONSTER!

Thats a good thing! I look-and about the same height-as cousin Itt.

Damn. I came in here hoping "28 Years a Film Archivist" was a sequel to "28 Weeks Later." But congrats, Trevor!
