    >but it's almost impossible to imagine what 24 would have looked like even 10 or 20 years ago.

    Not too hard to imagine 10 years ago.

    Nothing like a visit to The White Room.

    >Compare the violence in 24 to that of, say, 1990s episodes of NYPD Blue

    NYPD Blue, Law & Order, CSI, and other shows have plenty of other (more awful) things to be ashamed of. And they started before 24.

    Also, I have yet to see Jack Bauer dance a jig after torturing a terrorist.

  24. WWF on Using Google Earth to See Destruction · · Score: 1

    The World Wildlife Fund is please to be working with Google to showcase its projects. The WWF wants to do a smackdown on those who want to harm the world's wildlife.

And the WWF strives to clothesline any legislation that will further endanger the most innocent of creatures on this planet.

    Yeah, the wrong company won that name dispute.
