        It's not hate. I love Sports Night. I like most of Sorkin's stuff. I think he has dubious, conflicted attitudes towards women - ralph wiggum Jun 27, 19:47 11
        
        this. -- nm - loosi at home Jun 27, 20:45

        Ok, but I really don't want us to fight about this and I'm not sure either one of us is going to change our minds significantly. nm - ralph wiggum Jun 27, 19:51 1

- Power is power. -- nm - peglegpete Jun 27, 18:43
- It sounds like they're stealing the premise from Dies the Fire. -- (link) - Reagen Jun 27, 18:34 1
  - Rather than something standard and accepted, like a solar flare? Hmm. Probably wise. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 27, 18:54
- That is probably true, but it will take years to rebuild power plants. - GregW Jun 27, 18:34
If anyone likes the Gaslight Anthem, they're doing a live concert at the Ed Sullivan Theater now. -- (link) - jnine Jun 27, 18:22 5
