The scope of the media is so much larger now than it was in 1941 - we have immediate international access to anything we want to know. I think that's part of it.

I listened to a little bit of radio Wednesday morning. Wednesday night, when everything on TV was 9-11, Mister and I were at the State Fair with our chums, eating ice cream and caramel apples and frozen lemonade.

And happy we were able to do so.
