And this may be one of the reasons radio is in the pickle it's in.

Radio is not in a pickle. It is simply, like light bulbs, a mature, slow
growth business now. And will be for many years to come. Of course, the
company I am with increased its revenue 13% in Q4 of 2007, so I am in a high
growth, pickle-less sector of radio.

but you
find them to be excellent autodidacts.

Oh, not really. This is just something lots of people pretend after
they flunk out of school.

Except for the fact that I did not flunk out. I quit school (Colegio
Americano de Quito) the week my station went on the air.

Since radio broadcasting is not a field where there is much to be learned
in
college, intelligence and work experience is often better than specific
training.

There may not be much room for learning in radio broadcasting, but
there's plenty of room for it in life. Trust me on this one.


You have a very restricted mindset when you believe that learning can only
take place within the walls of academia. There is nothing stopping me from
reading Cervantes in the original or Joyce or picking up calculus if I want
to buy a couple of books.

My mother was very proud of my accomplishments.

It's a pity you can't be proud of them. Constantly chasing the
approval of others will only lead you down a long road of
disappointment. You have to learn to be proud of yourself. Then what
others think won't matter so much to you.


I'm sure what I wrote is closer to the mark. You do have a great
imagination though.

Not really. She was always ahead of her times, including being the first
woman board chairperson of the Cleveland Metropolitan General Hospital
system as well as a supporter of the NAACP in the 60's, on the board of the
Visiting Nurse Association, the Cleveland Museum of Art, among many other
activities in the community.

She was so proud of the stations I created that, despite all her occupations
my mother on a weekly basis visited a local one-stop and got all the new
additions to the WIXY "Nifty Fifty" and sent them by registered mail to me
in Ecuador. Since American music was a major part of the format at my first
station, this was a key to success.

Do you think your relationship with your mother played some role in
shaping your sexual predilections? Did she know about this part of
your life?

Perhaps instead of simply sitting there you should have applied
yourself. This is what the better students do.


I did not even have to apply myself to get A's. I could even do one class'
homework in another. It was just boring. And these were private, college
preparatory schools, not public ones.

a VP position at a publicly traded company to run their broadcast
division.
Since I had gone to college because I was consulting and had lots of free
time, this was no loss as I didn't have need for a degree...

This is what lots of people say who failed to earn a college degree.

Lots of them say they were recruited to be VP's of ´publicly traded
companies?

Or something similar.

what I wanted
was to give some structure to my knowledge of business and finance (radio
management) and the social sciences such as psychology, sociology,
cultural
anthropology (radio programming, in other words) and math and statistics
(research and ratings)... which I achieved.

Then you DO have a degree? In what? From where?

No., I was never even working towards one. I had a lot of free time while
consulting in the Southwest and decided to take courses that would be of
benefit to me personally, not necesarily towards a degree. I've never even
been asked about my educational background the few times I have changed
jobs... for each one I was recruited rather than having applied.

This is what people always say after they fail.

It also allowed me to learn
business terminology in English, which I had little familiarity with.

You learned "business terminology". Congratulations. My neighbor just
read the users manual for his new dishwasher. We're throwing him a
party next weekend.

All my business terminology and knowledge was in Spanish. Since I was in the
US, I thought it appropriate to learn the terms of the trade as well as the
differences in legal aspects of business. That was most useful, in fact.

The user's manual for my neighbor's dishwasher is in Swahili.

I called the folks who mattered, not the blabbering nabobs you'd
mis-directed me

That explains nothing. I gave you names of living persons who knew me in
Ecuador or via the Interamerican Association of Broadcasters. You called
nobody.

Give me the name of a couple of "people who matter."

You can't do it.

Yet, you never graduated from high school, let alone college.

Retard!

Funny. You've never owned a damn thing since you made up the South
American
stuff!

In another post i gave a half dozen references to people who could 100%
confirm my ownership of stations in Ecuador.

No paperwork. You owned nothing, retard boy.

Nobody is going to have paperwork for something that happened 40-some years
ago.

As an example, I have owned about 15 houses, give or take.

My goodness. In that case you are so deserving of our ACCEPTANCE and
APPROVAL. Way to go there!
Good job! Keep up the good job! Atta boy!

You don't mean radio as a business. You mean radio as a scam.

Were the radio business a scam, advertisers would not be coming back for
over 85 years.

Not if it only became a scam in the last few years.

That is why about $20 billion dollars was spent in radio advertising last
year?

Because the scam is successful? Though by no means the most successful.

... only because they had no alternative. I did. It was a lot more
challenging, rewarding and profitable to own and run a #1 radio station
than
to take woodshop or algebra.

Perhaps if you'd really understood woodshop or algebra you'd
appreciate them more.

I had algebra in 7th grade. I taught myself more advanced math in Ecuador to
be able to design transmitters, diplexers and directional antennas. It was
no big deal.

There is no reason to be bored in HS if there is something else you can

There is no reason to be bored in HS, period. But if you fail high
school, you move on to whatever else is there.

Again, I was doing absolutely fine grade wise. But it was boring and rote.

As mentioned before, my entire curriculum vitae can be
verified. I can give you a hundred names, ranging from the
mayor of Guayaquil to the leading DJ in Miami who worked for
me, with me or were clients or such of my stations in Ecuador;
my website actually has multiple pictures of me from the
construction of the first station onward, as well as my cards,
a verie letter from a prominent NRC member, etc. In fact,
several NRC members, the US delegate of the AIR, etc., visited
me and saw my stations... folks such as Larry Godwin and John
Hoogerheide of the NRC and Arch Madsden of Bonneville
International..

Yeah right.

Totally.

Jaime Nebot Velasco, mayor of Guayaquil. My partner in Radio
Carrousel 660. Betty Pino, 10 Am to 3 Pm WAMR Miami. Add to
that: Herb Levin at WRHB Miami (former Manager, WQBA, Miami's
#1 station, in the 60's and 70's) Carlos Guarderas Barba at
Quito's leading security firm
(http://www.cgbseguridad.com/quienes.php) Gabriel Espinoza de
los Monteros, Canal Uno, Quito, Ecuador.

Many NRC, NNRC, MWC, IRCA and NZDXA members got veries from
me for tests I did "off frequency" on HCRM1 (565 instead of
570) on multiple occasions.

Anyone who makes a phone call or two can find out.

'Eduardo', many calls have been made. My phone bill was over
$190.00 last month.

You are a fraud... as in 'faux'...

Got it, boy?

And, if you don't belive that I make the calls, ask Mr. Bryant!
He'll 'verie' that I indeed make the calls.

If you made the calls just what the heck do we have here in this
Eduardo character?

A poor litlle fool who likes to make stuff up. Yes, there is indeed a
bit of truth to what he states, but 90% of it is indeed made up.

Yeah, but what is the point of generating this Web page and Usenet
fabrication? What does he have to gain by doing this? There has to be a
payoff somewhere.

I have known a few people so addicted to lying they can't stop. It's
actually easier for them to lie about something then to tell the truth.
Is what we have here some kind of psych job?
