Tall Tale: The Unbelievable Adventures of Pecos Bill1995

Daniel Hackett:
I once seen a picture of New York City at night, it's all lit up with all these electric light bulbs. Can use a few of them right now.

Pecos Bill:
Electric light ball?

Daniel Hackett:
Light bulbs. They're balls of glass that light up hundreds of times brighter than the brightest candle.

John Henry:
Go on.

Daniel Hackett:
Well, pretty soon, people won't need lanterns, won't have to go chop their wood to make fires. Just turn this little knob and the electric light bulbs just come on.

Paul Bunyan:
But I like chopping wood.

Daniel Hackett:
Pretty soon, there won't be no darkness. It'll be like noontime at midnight.

John Henry:
Well, how are folks going to see the stars?

Daniel Hackett:
They just... won't see the stars, I guess.

Pecos Bill:
Well, I don't like it. No siree Bob, I don't like it one... Oh... [laughs] If you ask me, I think he's telling us a tall tale.

Paul Bunyan:
Yeah, that's a tall tale. That's a tall tale for sure.

Daniel Hackett:
That's God's honest truth.

Paul Bunyan:
Not see the stars?
