If this post was supposed to convince me of something - it certainly failed. And of course, I'd be curious how many letters you wrote to movie theatres to get them to keep Farenheit 911* off the screens.... Just wondering, Maru.... JDG * - P.S. As I am only vaugely aware of "The Path to 9/11", this post should not be taken to imply any sort of comparison between the relative merits of that film and "Farenheit 911". I'm just simply making the obvious comparison that Republicans generally didn't like Farenheit 911 and for some reason (not particularly well-explained in the cited post) at least some organized Democrats don't like "The Path to 9/11". _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
