[Dixielandjazz] Poor Ken Burns

[Mike]

I actually like his "Jazz" documentary and I own it on DVD. My 
only complaint was that there weren't more people spoken of. I 
also own the five disc set and there too, I wish he would have 
featured more people. None of the critics would have ever 
attempted such a big project.

I haven't seen his WWII history thing but I'd love too.
