#1 But did she ever do the Ed Sullivan Show? Sophie Tucker used to perform there as "the last of the red-hot mamas."

#3 ..She used to show up on the old Jack Paar Tonight show a lot, s well as the Ed Sulivan Show and the Merv Griffin Show. She was a little bit of history and entertainment that we won't see again.

#4 But Fred,

No one dies of old age anymore. Why it would screw up the statistical collection process that is the heart of every demand for more studies, more money. No one ever considers death to be a zero sum game. Its nature pie chart. Reduce death in one catagory, you only create an increase in another. More studies, more money!
