Half-baked idea number 8,047: A movie about Melvil Dewey and the creation of the Dewey Decimal System framed in the structure of Amadeus. Guess who will be put in the Salieri role? Hee hee. Charles Cutter, whose own subject classification system gets cruelly overlooked when the mad, womanizing genius, Dewey, takes the spotlight away. Of course they work together on the requiem, er, founding of the Library Journal. I can just hear the over-the-top opera score as the drama unfolds. With Johnny Depp as Dewey and William H. Macy as Cutter...

Million dollar idea number 8: Gross-out novelty candy - Gummi Embryos. The junior high kids will love it.
