[SML] Old theaters and dimmers

[Dorian Kelly]

Yes ours had a metal strip too. The chances of anything finishing up on the right number was about 25 per cent unless you has several operators with responsibility for a bank of  dimmers each. But there was never enough money for that.  It was usually just me.   It was a very satisfying feeling to execute a good cue.
