It's a funny thing but I've always looked at HBO as the American equivalent of
the BBC in terms of sheer quality so am amazed I've missed it.
I don't see why docu-dramas shouldn't be posted here as long as they are mainly
accruate. From the bits I've seen so far I would say this one is. I WAS around
to see it happen in real time. (from the Kennedy speech to the moon landing)
What I really hate is people messing around with history and passing it off as
the truth. ( Mel Gibson seems to be particularly good at that)
Glad you like the E-mail humour. The bookshop one had me in stitches lol!
Later,
RIB.
