      indeed

      When news stops what does a person do?

      I suppose what people in the SSR used to do. Keep a diary.

      I think the saddest thing I have heard this week, and i have a lot going on, is the loss of Voice of America. All those old movies where you see people in communist or fascist countries huddled around a contraband home made radio listening to news, they were listening to Voice of America, Radio Free Europe, Voice of Liberty .

      There is BBC World Service still and now it is more vital than ever.
