Well, I'm relieved to know I'm not the only one with this
iron-watching syndrome.

I don't watch TV, but I do have a collection of movies, and I
frequently notice ironwork in them.

The only one I can think of offhand is "Hero" with Dustin Hoffman,
which shows a Chicago (?) hotel with some ironwork around the door.
Poor example, and not worth watching for that, but it's a fun movie.

Maybe we should keep tally of movies with ironwork worth viewing?

The total lack of evidence is the surest sign that the conspiracy is working.
