    <<p.s.: By the way, there's a very interesting article on the same issue
    entitled "Television Viewing and Aggressive Behavior During Adolescence
    and Adulthood"
    <

    I read that this morning. The news account was unconvincing. The old
    "correlation does not imply causation" argument, of course.

    If I had a nickel for every act of violence I saw in the movies & TV as a
    younger person, I'd be very very rich. But I don't own a gun, and I think
    I've never even been in a fight since 10th grade (and that was not very
    violent).

    Of my eight children, only one watched TV a great deal compared to the
    others. He is, today, a Baptist minister. So go figure.
