Frank Zappa on Crossfire 1986 - 2006/03/10 11:44 This isn't related to Penn, atheism or skepcism but I figured I'd post it here anyway. You might have seen this video at iFilm or crooksandliars.

Frank Zappa talks about freedom of speech on Crossfire. Robert Novak argues for government censorship.

"We are talking about words here"

"The biggest threat to America today is not communism it's America moving toward a fascist theocracy." -Frank Zappa

Re:Frank Zappa on Crossfire 1986 - 2006/03/10 12:05 Wow, apparently they didn't understand that it's just about words.

but in all honesty, Zappa is very well-spoken.

Re:Frank Zappa on Crossfire 1986 - 2006/09/01 18:50 *raises hand*

I am pretty stupid for Zappa as well as Penn. I really liked "The Real Frank Zappa Book" and especially the "Night School" concept for a TV show. The closest that anyone has ever come is The Daily Show which I like a great deal, but Zappa's idea was, if anything edgier and more suspicious of authority.

Re:Frank Zappa on Crossfire 1986 - 2006/09/01 18:56 True ZAPPA fanz can disinguish themselves by being able to watch 200 Motels all the way through.

You get extra credit for being able to listen to Civilization Phase III immediately following.

Ken Woomer of San Antonio, Texas, can do both!
