[0:31] On World News Tonight this Monday, the

[0:32] surgeon general urges millions of

[0:34] Americans with a mental disorder to seek

[0:37] help. Don't be ashamed. The government

[0:40] says almost a dozen people have been

[0:41] arrested overseas who were planning to

[0:44] attack Americans sometime around New

[0:46] Year's Eve. The killers at Coline High

[0:49] School believe that Hollywood would be

[0:51] fighting for the story of the massacre

[0:53] they were planning, and they said so on

[0:55] videotape. And in the age of the

[0:57] calculator, is there any reason for the

[0:59] slide rule? For one thing, it doesn't

[1:02] need batteries.

[1:10] From ABC News World Headquarters in New

[1:13] York, this is World News Tonight with

[1:16] Peter Jennings.

[1:17] >> Good evening and welcome to a special

[1:18] Northwest edition of World News Tonight

[1:20] here on Channel 2. We're going to begin

[1:22] with a subject that millions of

[1:24] Americans don't like to talk about,

[1:25] mental health. The Surgeon General of

[1:27] the United States has issued the first

[1:28] ever report on mental health. It

[1:30] confirms the administration's commitment

[1:32] to getting mental health disorders out

[1:34] in the open where they can be faced and

[1:35] dealt with.
