Not bad.  Unfortunately, I was at a meeting during the prime-time showing.  Ran out of toothpicks during the mine locomotive section during the encore showing and had to call it a night.

Watched it and the one thing I found odd is that the commentator used the word "bogie" instead of the word "truck"...anybody else find this interesting or incorrect?
