Who watched Law and Order last night?
It was a great program about defective body armour leading to the death of a soldier in Iraq and the murder of someone in the manufacturer's company by one of the soldier's in the victim's company.

1. I did...
I knew that once McCoy got his teeth into it, he'd be all over that corporation.

I was glad that they brought up all of that. Not really happy with NBC for blowing off the Dixie Chicks, but it's not the first time Law and Order has publicized an issue of which most Americans are unaware.

2. Like Roberson's All My Sons. Morals in an un-moral world.
Something we all have to face. Think Miller wrote that moral play.

4. That was one of Arthur Miller's first
Rent the movie some time with Edward G. and Howard Duff. Really good stuff. Very subversive.

5. I hate to tell you but I think I saw it when it came out.
I pulled it from way back in my mind. And re-call Edward G Roberson and was trying to think if I had also read it as a play or about it as a play. And it sounded Miller to me. His plays seem to have that feeling.

3. I Did
And I wasn't surprised to see their head DA, who is a repuke in real life, trying to brush the story under the rug. L&O does show the general public what mainstream tv rarely does. Now if we could just find a progressive to go on American Idol! LOL
