[Electronics-talk] tv's

[Jude DaShiell]

So many examples in fact that there isn't a single major bank everyone 
of the State's attorney's general doesn't want to prosecute.  The only 
reason that hasn't happened is because of ongoing Federal

actually going to get prosecuted.  I'm pretty sure it will end up being 
zero.
