My daughter recently did three hours of broadcast video on the Yale University Tricentennial anniversary. She also did a history of submarines from Bushnell's "Turtle" to the atomic powered Nautilus for the Electric Boat Company. She gets constant requests from her gainful employment as a TV writer/producer to do freelance documentary work for medical and social services clients. So far she has been nominated for 5 Emmys and has won two International TV awards for her social service spots, a feat that makes her parents very proud. All that expensive education wasn't wasted. Now if she would only call and visit more often - - Larry Z
