I really, really hope Flight 93 is not touched by Hollywood - I can understand that, in time, it might be considered worthy subject material for a "Movie of the Week" or some such, but to me, the actions of those passengers (and the sacrifices of the police and firemen at the WTC) are sacred, and should not be sullied by the filthy touch of the spastic monkeys that inhabit Hollywood. Adam C. Lipscomb None of you must have seen this news article. A production company was considering, in October, of developing a light comedy/drama about a man and women who come together after each of their respective spouses are lost in the Sept. 11 attacks. No one jumped at the idea then but I'm sure by this summer there will be shows with this theme. Kevin T.
