Some say conservatives want to turn back the clock, they're not progressive!

I disagree and I'll use this quote to make my point.

"I would rather get away from that whole idea of clocks. We all want progress. But progress means getting nearer to the place where you want to be. And if you have taken a wrong turning, then to go forward does not get you any nearer. If you are on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; and in that case the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive ... [and] going back is the quickest way on." C.S. Lewis

888

This is off topic (OK, so you actually need to be posting to have a topic), but today the FBI captured an escaped sex offender in Kansas City. This is the guy that escaped from St. Peter, MN security hospital around Easter. His capture is credited completely to a tip received because of "America's Most Wanted".

The tipster also gave a general area where Benson was staying with a man he met at a Kansas City bar on Easter Sunday, the day after the escape. Tabman believes that Benson went to Kansas City (about a 420-mile drive from St. Peter) immediately after his escape, given that he arrived there a day later.

...

"America's Most Wanted" first aired on Feb. 7, 1988, and lists Benson's apprehension as capture No. 888 connected to the show.

This is capture is #888 that gives credit to the show. Impressive.
