[Earth_First]

FRONTLINE Presents
Inside the Meltdown
Tuesday, February 17, 2009, at 9 P.M. ET on PBS

FRONTLINE investigates the causes of the worst economic crisis in 70 years and how the government responded. The film chronicles the inside stories of the Bear Stearns deal, Lehman Brothers’ collapse, the propping up of insurance giant AIG, and the $700 billion bailout. Inside the Meltdown examines what Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke didn’t see, couldn’t stop and haven’t been able to fix.

1. The producer was on Bob Edwards' Show this morning.

It sounded very worthwhile.

4. ... and on with Charlie Rose last night

He showed some clips.

IMHO, it's MUST SEE teevee.

5. "the fundamentals of the economy are strong" - GWB

How many times did hear this until all of a sudden it's - the sky is falling !!!

And then we get bank execs in front of Congress recently saying - we never asked for the bailout...

8. And right before that, Nova is on where I live. Episode: Arctic Dinosaurs

A field expedition to collect new fossil clues pm Alaska's Norht Slope reveals details of the lives of polar dinosaurs. I suspect Palin will have to pre-empt it in AK for her church's Tuesday night glossolalia session.

I have set my tv to remind me of the program. Thanks!
