27. Very well said. And when I talk about the Bryant case, I'm looking

at it as an example of a rape case in this country as I think it's playing out normally enough, aside from the obviously over-the-top media coverage. The coverage gets into another area -- our society's worshipful attitude toward, and excessive interest in, athletes and certain entertainers

And we do indeed think ourselves enlightened that fathers and brothers don't kill family members who are victims of rape. Damn ironic.
