James, as much as I've blasted KQED-TV for pre-empting new episodes
of PBS shows in the past, I don't think they did this time. "Frontline"
is on Tuesday nights; I didn't watch it last night, but the new episode
is listed on KQED's website and in the TV Guide Online listings, so I 
presume that it ran.

"NOVA" is on Wednesday nights, and according to KQED's Schedule Changes
page, the exact episodes airing tonight have changed a number of times
as WGBH has kept up with current events; they are now scheduled to be
one about the Boston bombings and one about the Oklahoma tornadoes.

I just checked Comcast OnDemand and last night's new "Frontline" is
there; it's the episode flagged "NEW."

I always make out my checks to "KQED Radio" to make it clear which
part of the company I'm supporting.

Amen!
