Anyways, you should try to catch it...
Do you have any idea what it was called? I will watch it, and I will keep an open mind. If this reporter turns out to be a lleftist I am going to take it with a big grain of salt.
You have to understand I am sceptical. I know you don't believe that our higher population makes a difference, but it really does. When a system becomes very large its complexity increases geometrically.
