        Gayle, did you happen to notice that when women writers
        were saluted for having written stories upon which great
        films are based Margaret Mitchell, author of "Gone With the
        Wind," was not mentioned? I doubt the Hollywood crowd could
        have forgotten "GWTW," rather, I suspect, it was ignored because
        of "PC," i.e. "political correctness," the new MacCarthyism.
        "GWTW," after all, took place in the South during times of
        slavery and therefore is not to be mentioned these days.
        Never mind the fact that it is a good story.   Ernie.
