That's how they contacted me... via letter.


The letter is not the "recruit". It is simply a warm up, just like pitches
in the bull pen are not part of the actual baseball game. The recruit comes
when there is a call back and verification of the individual, household,
phone number and determination if that household is needed in the sample.


Your words, in Message-ID:

Original contact is made by pone, not mail. So you are lying or changing the

"It’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that the purpose of a
business is to make money. But the real purpose of a business is to
create value. While it’s possible to make money in the short run
without creating much value, in the long run it’s unsustainable.
Even criminal organizations have to create value for someone."

Well, more info for you. The letter is EXPERIMENTAL to see if it
increases
the recruit rate, and only used in a couple of cities where folks are
reticent to participate, like Denver and Portland.


Huh? The 'letter' came here about 3 years ago, and I live in Holland,
Michigan.


The letter had been used as an experiment in parallel tracking in hard to
sample markets, as a part of a project mandated by the Arbitron Advisory
Panel (a group of radio people who meet to advise Arbitron). They actually
tested it in 10 markets in the Winter, 2006 survey in parallel with "real"
recruits to measure differences. There are still concerns that it biases the
actual recruit. If accredited, it will be used as a technique for non-ethnic
audiences by the end of 2006. So far, none of the letter receivers have been
part of the actual radio ratings sample.

Ottawa county is part of the Grand Rapids MSA, and is not currently
receiving letters.

So which is it? Is "Hispanic" a race as you said in the first article, or
is it a linguistic grouping as you said in the second?

I'd buy one for $10 if it had a usable line out I could feed my stereo

Much more than that, and it's just not worth it to hear talk radio or
Spanish music.


I did not know there was any station in the US that played much music from
Spain.

Of course, you meant "music in Spanish" I assume. ;-)


Yes. A friend who moved to this area said his Spanish wife was complaining
that there was so little Spanish culture in the area. For that matter,
years back the Argentinian wife of another friend said the same thing about
South American culture in general.

Technically, it is a cultural group with only language as a common factor.

Hispanic can not be a race, as Hispanics can be of any race (Asian, Indian,
White, Black)

(OT) : Ethnicity = Ethnic Group {Race May -or- May Not Be A Factor}
 
DE - Ethnicity = Ethnic Group
{Race May -or- May Not Be A Factor}
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnic
An Ethnic Group is a Human Population whose members
Identify with Each Other. Ethnic Groups are also usually
United by Common Cultural, Behavioural, Linguistic, or
Religious practices. In this sense, an Ethnic Group is
also a Cultural Community.
Hispanics as a "Group" have a common Heritage
{Roots}, composed of one or all three of these
Ethic Group Elements : Culture, Language and Religion

Hispanics {Mexican-Americans} frequently exhibit
"Endogamy" as an Ethnic Group.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endogamy
Endogamy is the practice of marrying within a Social Group
often due to : Culture + Language + Religion

Ethnically Speaking : I Am An "Heinz 57" American [.]
[ Mutli-Cultured + Mixed-Parentage + Speaks English ]


and that be the end-o-me ~ RHF
