1. That story is completely lost to me now
Apparently censorship is only bad when it comes from a left-wing source.

5. I pointed out in another post that we are the new protectors of the truth.
So much of the media has refused to print the truth; and the government is doing its best to gag the rest, so, we on the internet are the people walking around reciting the words which are banned elsewhere.

2. Have you read it Midori?
It is a good movie, no doubt. I was struck when we read this in 10th grade English, back in 1982... it was written in the 50's, and Bradbury envisioned what we now know as ATM's! :-)

Keep in mind, when I read that back in 1982, ATM's were not much more than 3 years old! :o

6. I've been trying to watch it tonight whilst on DU.
But, I've had far too many distractions.

I've come to the conclusion that TV and DU don't mix very well.

:D

:hi:

7. That's a good movie.
Quite powerful. I saw it so long ago; wish I had read your post earlier.
