The film lasts almost 3 hours. Also, I will be seeing you at the FFF conference in June. The first round of quality beer is on me. Jim, maybe you should have a 12 pack or a keg.

Sounds like it would go great with a six-pack. Ellsburg has lots of excellent points. I just finished reading his memoir and will be tub-thumping on the blog soon about it.

It turns out the movie had alot of fiction in it, but there was one line I thought summed up the whole drug war. "If the war on drugs ended, 100,000 people would be out of a job". Steiger's Law at work. The bureucracy becomes more important than it's stated mission. Also, I would reccomend people to listen to Scott Horton's interview with Chris Deliso, and Daniel Ellsburg. It seems alot of banks are heavily involved in the laundering of drug money, and with this housing bubble getting ready to burst, it maybe a welcome infusion of capital for these banks to surive.
