It might be a fully funded show, but if the PBS network loses federal
support,there may be no network to carry it, even if in reruns. WWS
reruns would be better than no St. Roy at all. Some of us may have
learned all we can from his shows, but the next generation of Galoots
still have much to learn from him.
