This is OT and sorta political, so I apologize to those that take issue with 
my post here.  Well, on second thought, no I don't.
I just received an email related to FCC chairman Michael Powell asking that 
no action be taken against the ABC stations that aired over 20 uses of the 
"f" word and 12 "s" words during Saving Private Ryan.  I guess if the FCC 
chairman approves of TV's language, there's not much hope of cleaning up the 
ham bands.
