--  Todd Seavey, associate producer for John Stossel, informed me that: "On
March 23, 2000 (at 10pm Eastern, 9 Central), the one-hour ABC News special
*You Can't Say That!* with John Stossel looks at free speech vs. censorship
battles, everywhere from the workplace (where sexual harassment rules mean
that talking about romance to a co-worker can cost you millions) to the
campus of Brown University (where shrill protesters have been known to
shout down their opponents).  Barring last-minute editing, the show will
include visits with comedian George Carlin, comic book writer and film
director Kevin Smith (*Dogma*, *Chasing Amy*), *Village Voice* columnist
and known beatnik Nat Hentoff, professors Eugene Volokh and Alan Charles
Kors, bomb-making and weapons-loving author "Uncle" Ragnar Benson,
reclusive and government-hating author Claire Wolfe, and assorted others
such as a bar owner at odds with the Colorado liquor licensing board over
his habit of doing things like tattooing a popular four-letter obscenity
starting with F on his head.  All this and more, March 23 on *You Can't Say
That!*"
