Interesting mention of Dune.

She plans to provide some insight on her career to those who are interested. Eklund has borrowed a suit from the sci-fi film "Dune" worn by actor Sean Young that she worked on, and it will be displayed. She said she's also willing to chat about her experiences.

Sean Young played Chani in the 1984 movie Dune

Odd I didnt see any schedules at dunenovels.com for stuff like that.

Anyone near there go see them and tell us what you thought.

Andrew, put on your thinking cap and think real hard about Mahdi... has he EVER been wrong? Well, he never got those hats, so there must have been some problem... but No Matter!

On a non Dune related mater, Steven Speilberg's Taken has won the Emmy for best miniseries.

Hopefully that will increase Scifi's budget so they can make more Dune miniseries. :D
