For Len:
At the risk of repeating myself. I did not see the video. I did
not say anything about the video. I wasn't asked anything about
the video and I have not yet seen the program because it wasn't
shown here. I understand that the creator was a guy named Alioto.
Len.. did I say anything you felt wasn't true? Or is it entirely
the context? If My words were falsely used, then I may have a
cause for legal action. Has anybody talked to the FCC about
whether there should be a disclaimer if fiction is presented as
fact? Could one read the names of the actors which I understand
were listed in the credits?
