I had no idea that this technology existed and I think it's pretty cool. I think they 
should spend the extra money to install it. It's not that much more, and it would at 
least give a bread-machine design some distinction. (How do the owners know that the 
development won't become obsolete before the technology does anyway?) I'd be willing 
to try out a descriptive video myself, and so would a lot of senior citizens, I bet.

I wonder if this technology is applied to past films? If so, perhaps the theatre would 
consider a part-time retrospective slot. My favorite film from 1991 was "Proof," an 
Australian indie by director Jocelyn Moorhouse about a blind photographer who uses his 
camera to "catch" people in lies. (Thus he is blind not because he can't see but 
because of how his attitude colors the way he sees.) Showing this film with that 
technology would make a great opening night statement. A little creativity could go a 
long way because otherwise I remain very, very sceptical about Block E's chance for 
lasting success.
