Tentative Deal reached

An e-mail has been send around to WGA members stating that a tentative deal has been reached that, I get the impression, is going to be satisfactory to all concerned. A meeting was held today at 2 PM which I was not able to attend, since Ariel’s High School bowling team had their county-wide playoffs today. One has to have priorities (Ariel’s team came in second, by the way, and Ariel herself did excellently, shooting four games over 200.

From the tone of the letter, it appears that there will be no further picketing (which of course means the Oscars will go forward with no impediment–a big relief for Jon Stewart, I should think.) I have to think that, short of some sort of egregious problem, the strike is done.
