Re: Movies
I saw We Need to Talk About Kevin. It is a grim, compelling movie despite the fact that all of the characters are not likeable.

Re: Good article on music and $$$
They were letting people into the MOMA for free, and letting people take photos... You can take photos of only some of the art at MOMA - the permanent collections I think - but I am not clear on how the distinction is made.

Re: US will not deport young illegal immigrants
Non-citizens with green cards or visas can serve in the military, but not illegal immigrants. The proper documentation allows a person to come/stay in the US, and therefore can serve.
