    3. Dear Barbara, I missed seeing the movie on TV but it reminded me that I have it in my collection and will look at it tonight. You gave a good review and thank you. Like you, I have wished that I could have visited the Isle of Man, but I think it is too late for me. I have enjoyed all the reports from others, and we published in our book Jack Hockett's visit and Mary Lee and Paul Murray's visit. Many have given reports on TV and shared with us. Betty and Paul Bingham visited us one time and when they went back to Colorado Mary Ann Looney had exciting news for them. A diary had been found, made by M. D. Looney of Chicago in the summer of 1927. He had made a trip to the Isle of Man, and they sent me the diary. Like so many, they would like to know who Robert Looney's p! arents were. Elizabeth Looney sent me a letter that a researcher on the Isle of Man had written to her. She told Elizabeth she would take no more money from her because she could not find what she wanted. Of course, that was finding the parents of Robert Looney. On our website you can see some typical writings from the Isle of Man. They are very hard to read from the original and time consuming . This movie gives us a chance to just enjoy it all. I didn't mean to write so much, but it is a topic I love to talk about. Thanks Barbara for alerting us to this movie. Madge Looney Crane
