  2. That image of the continent of Africa is one of my very favourites. It's been an aid to so much actual... thought.

    And I agree with Seahorse -- I shouldn't have missed The West Wing. Ah well, in DVDs we trust.

  3. If you have Amazon Prime and a Kindle, The West Wing is free as are a lot of other great shows (Downton Abbey, MI-5, Doc Martin. Sherlock, Foyle's War, Inspector Lewis, etc. I LOOOOOVE my Kindle.
