I occasionally see Frontline over here and wonder how that is even possible. Hopefully King Harald is just underwriting some of Uncle Sams expenses rather than PBS being privatized for profit. One never really knows anymore; I half expect to hear Wal$Marts cheaper carriers and main battle tanks is henceforth defending all Americans willing and able to pay, and the wasteful corrupt US military is being disbanded.
