Hey Tardo, on that rather sad exercise in narcissism that you call your "website", Obviously, you have no achievements you ar eproud of. I do. ... because the site is, in part, a biography. And the course is one of the things I did. I wish I understood this obession people have with your life Not an obsession at all, it's just that most folks in the radio hobby come to understand that 'Eduardo' is an asshole! You should, then, ask yourself why most radio broadcasting folks who have come in contact with DXers believe that the DXers are the odd ones; it was not so a decade or two ago, and even further back, the DXer was perceived as a friend of radio. No longer so.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - If they think we're odd, that's fine. I'm sure the broadcasters are also a little quirky at times, no? |

It's a quirky business, where one lives quarter to quarter based on radio ratings in the larger markets and where a certain degree of controlled insanity makes for good programming and fun for listeners. It's not an insurance company, in other words. |

Why would building a #1 station in a market with 40 signals at age 18 require proving myself... again? And actually, I went back to school nearly a decade later and did quite nicely, while at the same time programming a group of radio stations. |

Why would building a #1 station in a market with 40 signals at age 18 require proving myself... again? It's your behavior, so you tell me. Perhaps you worked with people who didn't have sufficient appreciation of what you'd accomplished. Maybe they tried to use your lack of formal education against you in some petty, political way. Who knows? This isolated piece of your personal history could have been subtly relevant on many occasions, the cumulative effect being the chip you now have on your shoulder. |

The problem is that you just supposedly receieved a GED, which a poor- man's high-school diploma. |
