[dba-Tech] To 86

Does anyone know where this term came from? It's a verb, and it means "to
destroy", or "to file in the circular bin", etc. It came from the film biz,
that's all I know. It indicates that the 86-ed scene will not be shot, or if
it was shot, it will be discarded. I have googled several etymology sites
without success.

TIA,
Arthur
