to those who rasing intelligent children
and by that i mean avoiding the usual rubbish on tv and over exposure to bush id like to recommend a program on bbc4 (via the web). there is an absolutely hilarious, clever and witty program called just a minute. Contestants are given 60 seconds in which to expand on a theme given by the moderator wihtout hesitation, deviation or grammatical errors. The language, erudition and eloquence are enough to make one weep for the demise of the english language in this country and to the depths to which it has descended as demonstrated by our fearless leaders.
