Nash argues (and has an award from the L.A.-based William Parker Police Foundation to prove it) that his shows consist of tiny, 1 1/2-min. morality plays--Cops redrawn for those who just don't have the attention span. But even he sometimes apologizes for his art form: "It's certainly not what I want to be my legacy, but there's an audience out there. Is it my proudest achievement?
