small nit to pick... just because it _is_ on on PBS in your area, still
doesn't mean it is in all areas... i'd love to see this show, it's
supposed to be great, but local stations have the choice of what to show,
and at least the last few times it was on "nationally" it wasn't on in
denver, colorado... which is a real bummer...

actually, yes it does... as i described above. PBS is NOT like ABC, CBS,
etc. local stations have descretion as to what they show [someone once
gave the URL to the national pbs site, and i checked, and sure enough,
denver did not show anything wild]
