2. Just to give you hope...most DU'ers aren't watching it. Really...we've

gone back to some time where we are the "folks in caves with our books our candles and our lives reparing things."

But, we want so much to know what "other folks" are thinking we look to those few left to give us what the MSM says...just in case we are missing something...then we turn back to our computers, our books our candles and our lives."

I got your point....really...
