"It was my preferred entertainment when I was a kid, so when I set out to be a writer, it was perfectly natural that I should write the sort of stories that I used to enjoy reading."

Theater Seat Indicators  
  Vacant seats are clearly shown.  

Observing on the frame, which was located at the fourth aisle, West, that seats fourteen and fifteen were vacant, as indicated by red lights bearing numerals, we made our way, unattended, pausing at the designated tally light at the row entrance. We easily found our places, which were distinguished in the semi-gloom by pale, yellow signal-lights atop each seat. Upon taking our places, the signal-lights were automatically extinguished.
