2. Excellent.....refreshing. Can't wait to read his book, Burr.
Don't always agree with his perspective, but always find him thought provoking and offering what is a real rarity these days.....ANOTHER PERSPECTIVE. He is the antithesis of political correctness.

Gosh two wonderful programs tonight on PBS (Watergate and Gore Vidal). What a treat....like being served a very satisfying meal with plenty of new taste experiences.

4. How did I miss these
Usually I check the listings every week for pbs stuff I might want to see. The week I don't do this, 2 things I want to see come up!

I've been reading a lot about watergate lately. It has never seemed more relevant.
