 Ah ha,
It's the Farenheit 451 effect..
This comes from a former Austinite Judge Steve Russell now teaching law in Indiana.

People who haven't read Bradbury's Farenheit 451, where firemen burn =
books, think it's about government censorship.

Not.

The government provides 24/7 electronic media to kill the attention span =
of the public and the print media wither on the vine.  The firemen enjoy =
public support and are in fact a mop-up operation.

That is a stunning revelation, Steve, but I feel deep down that you are =

reading and writing, then I suppose independent opinion evaporates, too. =
That may account for it.

An elderly librarian in my home town, Castroville, Tx, told me that when =
she started doing fund raising for the public library she went to the =
parish priest and asked if he could make a contribution on behalf of the =
Church. She reported that his face expressed alarm as he stated, "No, =
you don't want them reading."
