Actually, a relatively insignificant correction: As It Happens as cleared by PRI
on Sirius 108 is already 1-1/2 hours later than when it aired, live, to the
Maritimes. You can get As It Happens on the Atlantic zone feed at
www.cbc.ca/audio.html, starting at 5:30pm ET. Further, PRI only clears the
first hour of AIH. AIH is well aware of what airs in the U-S, and, while I
wouldn't say it's deliberate, that last segment has a certain status, as such
it's quite a treat to listen to the last 30 minutes, using whatever other means
you might have. The most recent piece I heard in that last segment was that the
Pentagon had, a number of years ago, commissioned some research to see if Viagra
could be used to create a "gay bomb", whichwould be used on the enemy to so
thouroughly distract them with the rapture of coitus with others in their
platoon. So you can see, the folks who run the Pentagon really are homophobic.

Long convinced of that, here. I don't take any of my news anymore unless I get
it "vetted" by seeing a similar report from outside the country. We're really
in trouble when (and not to make it seem that I'm too paranoid, I should
probably amend that to "if") filters go up to prohibit the masses from listening
to outside sources. It's already been shown that the northern border states
are, by virtue of their exposure to Canadian media outlets, better informed and
more tolerant than those in the central and southern U-S. Not that it's a
primary reason, but the effects are certainly measureable. You have to wonder,
though, how it can be that people who listen to shortwave (as the cross-post'ed
newsgroup suggests...I'm looking at alt.radio.broadcast myself) don't get a wiff
of what's happening outside their own little worlds, where the U-S is best,
because they live in it.

Yep, we all be stooopid.

Is AIH on RCI shortwave? My internet connection isn't all that great...

The "gay bomb" idea is too funny, even if it is homophobic. Imagine a
drug that can be sprayed on an enemy, and suddenly the attacked feel an
overwhelming urge to ass**** each other, and they do so until the
ass****-free American troops rush in and force them to surrender in less
time than it takes for them to pull their cocks out of each other's
butts. Of course, the drug would work both ways, and spraying it on
American troops would produce an even more extreme result. Now imagine
it sprayed by terrorists from a crop duster over San Francisco... :)

The guys at the Pentagon have some really weird ideas.

I have no idea. I'm reading from the shortwave group, and I can say for
myself that I TRY to listen to the BBC every night-that is when local
interference isn't playing havoc with the reception. I also like
listening to Radio Havana Cuba-they're not so strident in their
anti-American rhetoric anymore, and their perspective is truly unique.
For example, the latest prisoner abuse scandal that was reported by
America's ABC-TV as simply being "guns pointed at the heads of
detainees" was reported by the Cubans to involve quite a bit more,
including physical abuse (punching and kicking, but no sexual stuff this
time). Who's right? Who knows? As for the Canadians, The World At Six
comes on at 5 pm my local time, and I choose to watch the local news
instead (gotta get the weather report). But As It Happens is earlier,
although I'll probably miss that too since my upcoming new job will
likely require me to work early afternoons.

I figure that the majority of shortwave listeners in the US listen to
DOMESTIC shortwave, which is why rec.radio.shortwave is so full of
loonies.

Exactly! Which is why CBS "News", with the

CBS Evening News has twice as many viewers as Fox News.

That vast left-wing media conspiracy, eh?

It wouldn't make any difference. San Francisco is already busy
ass****ing each other.
