I watched the first part, but missed the second part (special showing of
Due South...I can't miss that because not only is it a cool show, they
very often use interesting female vocals like Sarah McLachlan, Loreena
McKennitt, Holly Cole & Figgy Duff) so let me know how the second part
was.

I was suprised that Suzanne Vega was interviewed for the first part, so
who knows who else will show up?

Minimally Kate-related:

Last night on PBS there was a show called "The Internet Show" and while
unfortunally gaffa wasn't mentioned, they did interview an Ectophile
who was wearing a Happy Rhodes t-shirt!  Vadim Antonov (from Moscow,
now living in the US) was interviewed about how the Soviet net RELCOM was
very important in giving and gathering information during the attempted
coup.  It was fascinating, and the best part of the whole show.

(Kate-related only in that Ecto was born from gaffa...a stretch I know, but
I thought it was cool) :-)
