[TR] TR 3 on PanAm

[Bob Danielson]

Somewhat off subject but I have to say this......

This is one of those shows that people react differently to........ our very 
good friend's 18 year old daughter was on Pan Am 103 that was blown up over 
Lockerbie so when I saw that there was going to be a TV show named Pan 
Am........ I was outraged as were they and all of the other families 
affected by the bombing. The network could have chosen any name for the 
show, including a fictional airline name but they chose to capitalize on 
their name "recognition".  It's bad enough that the families never know when 
the picture of the Pan Am nose section crushed on the ground will show up on 
their TV to wreck their day but now they have to put up with advertisements 
for the show. One of the famous pictures from that tragedy was of a 
Christmas nutcracker (the ones that look like a soldier) half buried in the 
mud of the Lockerbie field. That nutcracker belonged to Tricia and was to be 
a Christmas present for her parents. Eventually it was given to them and 
they gave it to me to restore, as best I could. Holding that item in my hand 
was an unnerving experience that I'll never forget. Here's hoping the 
ratings for the show suck and it'll be off the air real soon.

German episode a lot.
