TODAY IS: National Equal Pay Day, the day on which a typical woman's earnings from the year 2000 added to her year-to-date 2001 salary finally equals what the typical man made in 2000 alone. It's just this sort of chauvinistic inequity that prompts Dolly Parton, Jane Fonda, and Lily Tomlin, in 1980's NINE TO FIVE, to enact hilarious revenge against their male boss, played to a despicable T by Dabney Coleman.
