Whether you are pro-life, pro-choice, pro-abortion, anti-abortion, or tired
of hearing about it anymore, you may be interested in this. NOVA, the
PBS science documentary show, is doing a show this week on the reproductive
process, from conception to birth. They will be showing "live" movies of
the fetus in the womb using a special type of scope. This is a very high
quality series and this show should be very interesting and informative, even
if it doesn't settle any debates on abortion.
In the Chicago area it will be shown Tuesday, February 15, at 7:00 PM on WTTW
channel 11. I hope everyone interested hears about this in time to see it.
I hope the others will ignore this message.
offering facts for the fire,

In the San Francisco Bay Area, it will be shown again next Sunday at 6:30 on channel 9, and probably on 6 or 54 too. The filming was done by Lennart Nillson, who some will remember as the guy who did the excellent photographs for the book 'A Child Is Born'. It is HIGHLY!!!!!! recommended for anyone curious about what really happens in there during those 9 months. Berry Kercheval Zehntel Inc. (decvax!sytek!zehntel!zinfandel!berry) (415)932-6900 (P.S. My position on abortion is 'decline to state')
