    re: Harry Seldon

    So... where do you put parole violators, in whatever country you're from? Presumably when someone violates parole, the courts in your country do SOMETHING.

    This "vulnerable young woman" is being put in solitary not as an extra punishment, but as a special concession.

    By the way, I agree with whoever wrote about the books. Fine world we live in, where TV is allowed in prison and books aren't.
