a lot of this stuff doesn’t even need to be researched. We already know about it.
Heck, if you watch TV you learn a lot about the actual medical, legal, and technical jargon/procedures/practices. You don’t have to be a doctor, lawyer, or geek.
Speaking of that, I have two very close friends that watch very little TV. One watches sports, the other, nothing except an occasional old, old movie. I’m amazed many times during a conversation that they will be totally obvilious to something that I thought was plain ol’ general knowledge. I guess the Days’ writers must watch TV either.
(I suppose this should be on the Brady Pub site too but it really started here and is hard to switch. Sorry ’bout that.)
