"Most Laurel & Hardy fans have probably memorized Way Out West, so it's refreshing to see a website that takes a fresh, objective, and comprehensive look at this Laurel & Hardy classic. Steve Bailey's observations and comments are not provocative or argumentative, but 'just to give L & H buffs something to think about.' He gives the online audience some good reading, and plenty of it!"
