episodes, maybe followed by Dan Hinckley. Then the two guys in Maine whose
names escape me at the moment. There are a lot of other people with good
presence and great breadth and depth of knowledge who could make that

shine. How about a few episodes with our own Claire, Marge, Paul, and Gene
Bush? I'd put that in my date book to tune in. >>
You are a very nice man, Bill. I should not be equal to such a task. I don't
know why they have taken the program in this direction, maybe we will be
surprised. I think that many people, we do, contribute to PBS and hoped for
a bit better. The article states that Roger Swain will continue to lecture,
write and travel. The Morashes are retiring completely from public work.
We get an assortment of other commercial free programs now. Some are
University generated and there is World-Link. These all come by way of
satellite. One wold think there could be at least one or two horticultural
shows with mature content.
