This is a fairly transparent lie.  If that was the issue we would just
charge more for local daytime calls just like we do for long distance
daytime calls.

Yes-- but the important thing here, when it is claimed that
this language has many more words for snow than English, is
to do the lumping or splitting consistently across languages.
If you decide to split up all the Eskimo terms, it's not
necessarily proper to lump together the English ones.

Isn't it true that "there are 30 words for snow in Eskimo" is true only
if you count all the words for snow in about 8 distinct but related languages?

Actually the term was coined to label the women who entered a previously all-
male educational institution.  On previously all-female campuses, the term
has been expanded to include the men who have enrolled, but strictly speaking
it doesn't apply to ANYONE on a campus which was originally open to members
of both sexes, and it certainly doesn't apply to all woman students indiscri-
minately.  Therefore, Yale women and Vassar men are co-eds, but no one at the
U. of Md. is a co-ed.

Yea, WPXI (Channel 11 in Pittsburgh) carried it in it's entirety at first.
They later (after some complaints, I suspect) edited it to show Bud pulling

This is only one of many, many, bad Bud jokes.  It's rather amazing how people

Not quite. This is one specific fighter pilot: one of the well-known ones (not
THAT well-known, obviously   :->  ). May have been 'Sailor' Malan, the
South African, but don't quote me on it. The book I read it in is very old,
and far away (as in at the parents house, or gone in a jumble sale...).

One thing all those accounts had in common, though, was the assertion that
some people could shoot, and some people couldn't, and if you couldn't, all
the training in the world wasn't going to make any difference... It had to do
with how well you could control the plane and lots of other things, obviously,
and it improved with practice, but they all say (write, for the
licence-impaired) that the potential ability was either there or not...

You may be thinking of _The Glitter Dome_ (it's been awhile since 
I've had time to explore that end of the literature shelf, which
used to be one of my favorite places to go slumming).  _The Onion 
Field_ (also by Wambaugh) is nonfiction about a cop-killing. 
_The Onion Dome_ is nonfiction about an attempt to move the Giants
to a proposed indoor ballpark in downtown Fresno.

Not to give away the plot of _TGD_, but it uses allusions to the 
Edward Arlington Robinson poem (and subsequent Simon and Garfunkel 
feel-good boogie) "Richard Cory" as a leitmotif, so you can guess
what happens to our hero.  But nobody filmed his demise. Its reach
exceeded its grasp, IMHO -- an entertaining read, but not up to the
standards of _The Black Marble_ or _The Secrets of Harry Bright_,
to name a couple examples of JW in top form.
