Re: PBS, NPR, etc

["Toan" <toan@usa.net>]

Thank you, ba'c Ian for expressing my mind as well!

I used to have a closet full of PBS NOVA, NATURE, and Frontline series,
Stalin, War and Peace in the Nuclear Age, Economics USA (Annenberg, CPB
join educational ), The Genius that Was China..... COSMOS....

The dream? share them with my Viet youth. I  think it can still be done,
even easier and in more efficient ways.

I very much share the thoughts you have.

Thanks again. Look forward to our arrival at some results.
