[net.tv] Lost episodes and Crassness at pledge time

<<Bozos of the world, unite!>>

	That idea about letting the government pay for Public Television
is very nice.  As a matter of fact, it already happens; much of the pledge
money which Public television stations raise is matched dollar-for-dollar
by various and sundry Federal agencies.  

	Remember, too, that if the government funds PBS stations entirely,
then the whole world will start screaming 'censorship' when something 
*doesn't* appear because the sponsor (the US Government) refuses to sponsor
it.
