Thanks for this. I'll have to look it up.

/u/SierraKiloBravo?

On a side note, semi-related, I have several screenplays in the works that remain unfinished as long as I'm distracted by learning and am addicted to current events and SaidIt. One of them is all the most important stuff I can muster in one story, Bittersweet Seeds, another, Trutherism 101 is about the conspiratorial levers of power. The third on my priority list is The Rendezvous, named after a roadhouse that used to exist down the road from me, with my fictional story set amid a lot of historical fact, taking place between 1922 and 1968 set in Windsor and Detroit across 3 generations. It deals with race relations, spousal abuse, rum running, the first lesser known Detroit riots in 1943 with WWII and riots again in 1967 with MoTown. Back then the rum running was about as prevalent as NOT wearing masks these days - MANY did it and many obeyed the prohibition. It was BIG business. Most movies make it like only gangsters did it. I still have a short fictional scene with some gangsters (despite me trying not to include and thus glamorize gangsters), the infamous Jewish Purple Gang of Detroit and others, though most Jewish mobsters are not publicized much in the media though they dominated. Anyway, some of my fictional characters have the inside scoop on these semi-precious diamond rocks that finally pays off after several decades for a happy ending.

I really should finish my stories to share.

That doco looks interesting, I love a good cartel story.

Bro, if its any consolation, my To Do list for my mini-docos to make, my library, and my watch list for movies and TV is so huge, I will need to live to 203 years old to get through it all. It's good to have a lot on, keeps the brain active, the gears turning.

Another challenge I have is moderating when to stop the input and when to start the output, and vice versa. There's never enough time to learn it all / do it all / make it all.
