It happened on the record charts, not in the North Atlantic, and instead of an iceberg, the fatal blow was struck by Dave Matthews, a former barkeep turned leader of the Dave Matthews Band. After spending 16 weeks at No. 1, the once unsinkable Titanic soundtrack collided with Matthews' new album, Before These Crowded Streets. When it was over, Matthews reigned in the top spot...

Of course, the audience at the IOP Forum applauded The Big One enthusiastically, and except for those mentioned above, their questions were remarkably indulgent. Moore is obviously getting at something that should be said. But labor...
