about a week ago  I was listening to a reporter ask an aviation expert" what the focus of the
operation was currently"....

the expert said "the focus right now is on locating the plane".....

but thankfully they have dug deep and really pulled out some heavy hitters...

 this am on CNN front page online....in ultra large bold print, headline reads:

I think that the problem is that the people at Chicken Noodle News who have college degrees got their degree in "fine arts" and can't even spell science.  :mrgreen:
