Far be for me to say anything like that Bill Mahr has his "Reports Fron The Bubble". Apparently, other people have their own bubble. No concept of the real world.Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossilbe before they were done. Louis D Brandeis Where are we going and why are we in this basket?
