>> well, peter that's harrowing., we had might century to come along and tidy up after you once again because we launched then in the 19th century the longest-running reform movement in american history. thing that supreme worked hardest on in the united states history from then until today to try to contain the evil effects of alcohol. >> how do they do that, ed? >> well, they mobilized in the early 19th century, is the the evangelical churches come along and women are a key part of all this. and this tavern culture you're talking about, women are often the victims of this, the women and children who are are related to the men who think it's so much fun to go do this and they begin to think there's a great social and personal cost. in the 19th century, we've discovered that the family is the most important component of society. anything that damages the family is damaging society. and so we must simply put your beer down, i'm talking to you. we must persuade people to begin drinking water instead of alcohol. who sho

it is a bleak picture that peter painted. but if you look at the computer and financial world, there is a lot of value and the wealth created here that was on a manageable -- unimaginable 40 years ago. we have had productivity gains in lots of industries that seem like they're not innovative industries, whether the steel industry or anything else largely because we have had computer innovation. we are innovating maybe in other areas as well. we have seemingly interesting movement in robotics, nano materials. 10 years from now maybe we will say that was the dawn of the space era. something we all have thought has been dead but may be waking up. there are two other points on the why question that give me pause. the time frame that peter identifies as when innovation stopped is largely speaking the time frame in not which regulates and started getting really heavy and the government started getting involved in our life. for the most part, it has been the opposite. the reagan revolution try to back away from too much regulation a

i went back with peter as a matter of fact.ery quickly because i know the time pressure is on, when i went back there a year ago i went to visit some of the old haunts, a quick drive past the embassy and saw the relic of it, that existed, smattered, dirties, vietnamese sleeping in front of the gate. but the surprise of it all was visiting the palace, that is to say, the new presidential palace that we all know. the new palace had been rented by mercedes benz and the entire lawn and the first floor of the palace was filled with brand new mercedes benzes for sale. it was suddenly, when i took a look at this panorama of automobiles, suddenly a rush of obscenity as it were, because i kept thinking of the sacrifices, the dead, what it had done there, what it had done at home, and there there were the mercedes benz selling for between $30,000 and $80,000 to people, among them hotel clerks, try lingual people earning $80 a month. we could go on with a variety of vignettes that catch up the spirit of that story. just let me say in clos

peter and i are in the minority. anyway,i think i agree with mark and a lot of what people have said. i will not take too much time here. a practicalo geive reflection. the question as i saw in the program was something along the lines of does technical -- an ecological progress require guidance? i think not, other than with a basic rule of law. apart from that, we get into problems when government, whether through lettish -- through legislation or regulation applies industry specific and sector specific rules. contract disputes are fine. those are issues we deal with all the time. antitrust, that regime is applicable to many industries and can solve an issue like net neutrality. or private mother may i situations as markell was saying. that is the main problem when you get legislation regulation that tries to go the next step and go to specific. from a company's perspective and not just facebook but everybody in the valley -- working on some of the telecom act stuff in the mid 90s, companies must deal with the reali

peter, can you summarize what we have heard so far? it has been incredibly complex and complicated. >> the presiding judge, judge richard lussick, has not used the word guilty, but he said they have found him criminally responsible. this goes to the heart of the prosecution case against charles taylor. the prosecution has been trying to show that charles taylor had command responsibility for the ruf activities in sierra leone. he said they failed to prove, and responsibility, and that charles taylor's influence fell short of command and control. they have found him criminally irresponsible for aiding and abetting the ruf rebels. >> i'm aware that you are listening to this as it's happening, but are we to assume, therefore, that aiding and abetting is something less than being found guilty of war crimes and crimes against humanity? >> i cannot say at this stage. obviously, judge richard lussick is not yet finished. it has been proceeding for more than two hours. he seems to have some way to go. we heard a detailed account of the war in

peter is the 18th century guy. he is an expert on the founding period and is the thomas jefferson foundation professor at university of iowa and ed ayers is the 19th century guy, and he is president of history at the university of richmond. brian boe log, the 20th century guy, is compton professor of history at the university of virginia, and chair of the national fellowship program at the miller center's public affairs. so let me also acknowledge the work that goes on behind the scenes. we have executive producer andrew wyndham also here in the house, and the program's senior producer tony field, and i think they're running the boards here to make sure the sound gets up. let me give you a quick program for tonight so you know what's going to happen and in what order. the guys and the guests will talk for about 30 minutes, and talk, i guess, about beer. then we are going to ask all of you to step into the role of callers and ask questions of the show, and then we'll do wrap up and c-span is filming tonight, so you
