NY Times on the sounds of All Things Considered

"People are music-starved. They like this music because it's not like music you can hear anywhere else on the radio. We play music from all over the world, and from all different eras." see also : All Songs Considered

Desmond Tutu

"Our country chose a middle way of individual amnesty for truth. Some would say, what about justice? And we say retributive justice is not the only kind of justice. There is also restorative justice, because we believe in Ubuntu -- the essence of being human, that idea that we are all caught up in a delicate network of interdependence. We say, "A person is a person through other persons." I need you in order to be me and you need me in order to be you."

The Just Watch Me website

"It was hard to grow up under the elegant, enigmatic and eccentric Pierre Trudeau. The man was just so dominant. In Just Watch Me, we meet eight people from across the country - Anglo and Franco, separatist and federalist, idealist and realist - whose personal and national dreams are intertwined." The film is being broadcast this evening on CBC television at 20h00 EST, and there are real video clips on the website. I heard an interview with the director this morning who opined the following : "If people had known the bi-lingualism project was about sex, they would have studied it alot harder."
