Millican: The Hall Fixer

... a friend. Yes, that's exactly what Paddy Millican, Steds senior and 1st floor RA, did when trying to install the Hall's laser disc player. Thanks to a generous benefaction from Gerry and Barbara Trafficanda from California, the Hall has a laser disc player as well as an incredible collection of laser disc movies. Preparing to unveil the player and collection this Saturday, post game of course, Millican needed some help to make the appropriate connections with the TV. As on TV gameshow, Millican chose to phone a friend for help. On the getting everything to work, Millican said, "After mighty toil, Devin (Crudele) and I managed to get the laser disc player working. It turns out that we didn’t needed to unscrew the entire machine; instead, the disc chute just needed a little help opening. I look forward to whiling away hours watching classic movies in front of this magnificent, inscrutable machine."
