If you had been on a high school or college debate team, you would understand. So, this just sport for you. You're not arguing to purpose, you're simply arguing. Got it. I was in the Writer's Club, actually. Given your stated disdain for DXers, it is quite the curiosity that you spend so much time arguing with them. I have a disdain for DXers who have a disdain for broadcasters. Big difference. What you conveniently ignore, is that fans don't turn on the object of their fanaticism....they have to be run off. Broadcasters were long disdainful of DXers before DXers were turned off. So, you have disdain for Dxers who have disdain for you because you had disdain for them. Yes, it's a big difference of no difference. The very persons for whom you have disdain are the ones you spend so much time aguing with. Yes, I see the distinction. Like Steve...you dismiss them as irrelevant. You blame them for the deterioration of their relationship with broadcasters...and yet you regularly engage them. ... because it is fun. A person in your position would seem to have better uses for his time. I find this a rather entertaining diversion from that very same position. Unless, like another poster here, who faded away about the time of your appearance, your bickering here is fodder for some discussions outside of the group. How nice to be able to foment conversation. As usual, you miss my point. Which then raises more significant questions. Nothing on a news group is truly significant. It's backyard gossip over a (fire) wall. Uh huh...which, again, raises questions. |

You're not arguing to purpose, you're simply arguing. Got it. No, you do not get it. Debate, going back to the Greeks, was as much about the enjoyment of the discussion as the content being discussed. There are two parts... holding a point of view and enjoying the challenge of defending it. I have a disdain for DXers who have a disdain for broadcasters. Big difference. What you conveniently ignore, is that fans don't turn on the object of their fanaticism....they have to be run off. This "hatred" has to origins... One is based in the decline of AM whereby most "DX hours" programming is networked and there is little variety to hear among domestics. The second is based on AM looking for a saviour, and placing some faith in HD Radio to improve its declining fortunes. The first makes late-night DX boring. The second makes it impossible. Both are reasonable business decisions by AM stations, but DXers see them as attacks. Broadcasters were long disdainful of DXers before DXers were turned off. I would not say that. Interest in DX reports waned as the importance of non-local coverage waned, while at the same time most non-Metro stations used outside contract engineers who were not paid to answer reception reports. Today, nearly nobody at a station will know what DX even is. Unless, like another poster here, who faded away about the time of your appearance, your bickering here is fodder for some discussions outside of the group.

You don't actually discuss, because you don't actually listen. You don't actually respond to someone else's comment. You declare. You don't discuss.

And you would be in direct contradiction with yourself. You've stated repeatedly how the disinterest in DX reports predates even the days of CKLW. Broadcasters had disdain for DXers long before DXers had disdain for Broadcasters. Unless, like another poster here, who faded away about the time of your appearance, your bickering here is fodder for some discussions outside of the group. How nice to be able to foment conversation. As usual, you miss my point. You have no point. Wow. That's some debate style. You must have been a student of Bryant. Or Algore. Have a good evening, David. |

Yeah, I know you are envious that I had a business of my own at age 17 that was a lot more exciting and productive than falling asleep from boredom in high school... and later I had the luxury of studying what I wanted, not a required curriculum, in college. |

Of course, that has no truth to it al all. I was a good enough DXer to be one of the founding members of the IRCA and a member of it's board in its first year, as well as a member of the NRC from about 1958 to just a couple of years ago. |
