To all on this thread, thought I'd share something from today's Houston Post that some of you may be interested in:

An APPEAL To The Heads Of Every Company Supporting TV Programs That Undermine America

Mail to:

Steve Allen
Parents Television Council
600 Wilshire Blvd, Suite 700
Los Angeles, CA 90017

Yes, Steve, I want to be counted as one who agrees that TV is leading us down a moral sewer. I think it is unconscionable for fine companies to use their ad dollars to send TV filth, vulgarity, coarse humor, premarital sex situations, violence, killings and all the rest into American living rooms and children's bedrooms. Let's bring back Family-Safe TV.

I'm leaving off the request for contributions part, but will just note this is a 501(c)(3) organization and they say every penny they collect will go for ads and notifying sponsors, though contributions are not needed to have this Appeal added to the total they report.

I'd love to see them get an enormous response to this.

Dano,
In the last two days, I have heard the following.

Teen pregnancies- plummeting, and at the lowest levels since the early seventies. Teen abortions are also down, correspondingly.

violent crime-- also down significantly, at lowest levels since the late 80's/early nineties

drunk driving-- also way down.

Any thoughts?

Mark
