Illegitimi non Carborundum
During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.- Orwell
The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it will hate those who speak it - Orwell
Oh, my goodness. I got 16/16 EXCEPT I grew up in LA so we had more than 3 channels. Seven as I recall, the 3 nets and 4 independents. All the rest, though, I recall clearly, even to my mom using a wash tub wringer (then hanging the wet laundry on the line).
