I disagree, this board as you call it, went to ****, as it were, the day the
wall street journal published that the law firm which did the first USENET
SPAM got $230,000 in business from it.

Apparently my usenet provider filters for me as I rarely see any spam
here. I find toying with the dittoheads amusing.

I am always ready to talk radio. Unfortunately, what's left besides bad
commercial radio, un-listenable non-commercial radio, and disappearing
HFBC, is UTE monitoring, which seems to generate little interest around
here.
