 SL>Willis's part was a bonified HERO...no ANTI about it... 
 
 GC> I'll take your word for it. To tell the truth I wasn't paying all that 
 GC> much attention. The movie wasn't doing anything for me... 
 
     He was fighting real bonified BAD GUYS too... 
     Although I have to admit neither the cops or the military 
     were exactly flattered by the film... 
 
     Also of note...??? 
     The American president was (I think) the same fellow that appeared 
     with Willis in pulp fiction (as his antagonist)...Is there a 
     connection here...? 
 
 SL>What I think you guys are missing is the Roman Circus Element of 
 SL>modern entertainment...Much like declining Rome, our society offers 
 SL>little education and lots of spectacle in the hope that the masses 
 SL>will be distracted and ignore what the Powers that be are up to... 
 SL>(it works)...(for awhile anyway)... 
 
 GC> Poppycock. The people have NEVER BEFORE had such access to public 
 GC> officials and what they are doing. 
 
     Or less interest...It's just cable filler...the voter stats are 
     still declining... 
 
 GC> Now if we could just get a tv camera into EVERY court room and 
 GC> government office... 
 
     I'm for it... 
 
 SL>The V chip won't change that, it's basically a sound
 SL>idea, but the market will subvert it rather than cater to it... 
 
 GC> Anything's possible, of course, but there sure isn't anything else out 
 GC> there with as much promise. 
 
     That's true...I don't really see any valid objection to it, other
     than the simple objection to government intervention...which is 
     really a different issue all together...
