Star wars opening to cost the economy millions. These studies seem more than a bit disingenious. Afterall, when was the last time you saw something about how much religious holidays cost the economy? Or the first "beach day" of summer? Or when Lynard Skynard comes to town and all the baby boomers get out of work early to make it to the stadium on time? Or the opening game? Or hang-over day after cinco de mayo? I guess the double standard of picking on geeks is alive and well while the sacred cows of religion, race, baseball, and dinosaur rock remain protected.
