"Can Sony Make HD Radio A Winner?" "So, the old consumers don't want HD. Young consumers think the concept is laughable. Big retailers can't sell it. And radio companies won't invest in it. Sounds like a winner to me." http://insidemusicmedia.blogspot.com...io-winner.html Is this the Sony that looks like a car battery? LMFAO! |

Durbin is pretty widely known to be kept isolated from outside influences, and is led around with the ring in his nose by his staff. It's very possible he's not aware of the interference caused by IBOC, and has, instead adopted the position of acceptance handed him by, as you said, an aide, or associate pursuant to political agendae, and contributorship. Durbin is one of the slimiest of the Illinois politicians, and like our beloved Governor (nice hair, not much under it-----thank you G.Gordon Liddy) is prone to say whatever he needs to say to get critics off his back. And then forget the conversation before the words have died in the room. |

Is 'Eduardo' moonlighting? Careful...mentioning his name is like saying 'Betelgieuse'....three times and he appears. But to the point...given what we've seen him post here, and the inconsistencies in some of his claims, I've wondered if that's not precisely what he's doing. |
