Hi Peter,
First of all, your last post seemed a little apologetic, or defensive, or whatever. Maybe I sounded like a crotchety old so-and-so when I commented before. I'm sorry if that's so; I didn't mean to. (I'd say what I really mean by "so-and-so," but there is probably a rule against certain words on this forum, and I don't want to get in trouble.)
I talked to Gary Stover, the host and interviewer, for about half an hour before last night's segment. Among other things he said they'd been getting viewer complaints about their web site not being easily navigated. I told him that had been my experience, too. Not likely they've corrected anything within 24 hours.
Mr. Stover seems to be a fan of "Reclaiming History," so I made a point of mentioning, during the show, Jim DiEugenio's long review of that shameful volume. I can't remember whether I mentioned my own review of Bugliosi's book. I meant to.
In any case, I don't think last night's segment has been uploaded yet. Should be by tomorrow or Friday, based on how quickly they've uploaded the others.
I do not enjoy doing shows like that. They are totally weird, artificial situations. I only did it because it was a chance to promote my book.
But wouldn't you know it? I forgot the most critical point! Which is that Praise from a Future Generation is going to be an e-book in the not-too-distant future. Self-promotion is not my thing.
This has all fallen into place in the last few weeks. I'll be making minor revisions and a few small additions to it over the summer. I'm told it should be available sometime in the fall. And that's about all I know.

I had been led to believe [in an email] that it had just happened.hock: John, do you have the url to the video of the "after show" that you were a part of?
