Nice PieceThanks for taking the time to focus our attention on this sweet piece of pop culture. My mother and I, who have been watching that program most every year for the last 40 years, are sitting on the family couch now, remembering our own affection for the Charlie Brown special that started them all. It will always be the best. It always had the most heart in it of all of them. And those tender little voices... so heart rending. Good job on getting enthusiastic and articulate commentators to underline what made this program special. Happy holidays to you. Paul Ingles (with Audrey Ingles)

I'm a Hugh Duncan fan
I've always been amazed at simplicity and profoundness of the work of Charles Schulz and I think Hugh Duncan did a great job capturing what I think Schulz was trying to do with this Christmas favorite. Don't forget "what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown!" I'm a Hugh Duncan fan and never miss an episode of his Nuclearity at www.nuclearity.org. Happy New Year!
