I still recall seeing Siskel and Ebert Sneak Previews on WTTW and then at the Movies when it moved to Channel 9 IIRC. How sad he was taking a "leave of presence" yesterday. Siskel took a leave of absence 14 years ago. I guess they are now arguing in that great movie theater in the sky.
Maybe we were too busy following the news and the obits.
I'm not a big movie watcher myself. But I admired Ebert for the way he addressed other public issues, and for the way that he carried on in spite of his cancer. -- AT&T Uverse; Buffalo WHR-300HP router (behind the 2wire gateway); openSuSE 12.3; firefox 19.0.2
