If any of you are computer savvy (I am NOT) maybe you could help me out here. I need to know if it is possible to order a segment of an old TV show on DVD or VHS. The show was about the Cabrini-Green area of Chicago and it was done by Geraldo Rivera many many years ago. I have visited the Geraldo web site but he doesn't have any contact section on his web site so asking him directly doesn't seem like a probable solution. Anyone that has any other info on Cabrini I would love if you would share it with me, ie, books, movies, personal accounts (ever driven through C-G without really realizing at first where you were):eek: . What about all the displaced people now that Cabrini has been demolished, what are they expected to do?

Hmmm never heard of this....not surprising since I'm :ca: eh!
I'm surprised that the Geraldo web site doesn't have contact information. Usually they have at least something for fans to write in fan mail...

I found a book on Amazon.com called Hidden War: Crime and the Tragedy of Public Housing in Chicago - it talks about Cabrini Green apparently? I saw that the Geraldo episode aired in November /96 and on March 20/97 apparently.
