17、onsthe Swiss. InSwitzerland, if you were simply to anticipatea traffic light, the chances are that the motorist behind you would take your number and report you to the police.

The show focuses on the improvement of society and an individuals qualityof life. Topics range from te

27、aching your children responsibility, managing your work week, to getting to know your neighbors.Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being dumped on society.
