I'll check it out. Last night BBC4 had a documentary which was basically a scientific biography of a year in the life of a single oak tree.

On paper the US gig had the better line up IMHO, but the UK gig was better.

On BBC4 right now there's a lovely Irish guy recording bird calls in the beautiful countryside of Ireland. Don't tell me the license fee isn't worth it.

So not technically elected leaders, but 'elders' who are abnegating their duty?

When you talk about the Democratic 'leadership' who do you mean? In the UK we have a 'leader of the opposition' and they have a whole 'shadow cabinet' made of MPs from the opposition party. Is there an equivalent in the US?
