Yes, I can confirm that you are a member in good standing, and will
receive a ballot. If you do not, please let me know. The ballots go
out in mid-February.<br>

<div>Since you are the Election Czar, I thought I'd
direct my question to you: Because I hosted my show as
a volunteer programmer from January thru June this
year, am I a KZYX member? I also put in volunteer
hours as a KZYX Board member. That's enough volunteer
hours for membership status, correct?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please confirm. I ask, because I want to be able to
vote in the upcoming election, but I prefer not to
contribute any money towards the station at this point
until there is a change in management (Coate<em> and</em>
Aigner).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thank you.</div>

<div><br>
</div>
Here's the text of the letter to KZYX I wrapped around
my check:<br>
<div><br>
</div>
KZYX&Z, P.O. Box 1, Philo, CA 95466<br>
<div><br>
</div>
Mary and John and money-changing staff, accept this
check for $25 for a <br>
Simple Living Membership.<br>
<div><br>
</div>
I had to force myself to send this money, because I so
don't have it to <br>
throw around and so don't want to reward you*, but I
want to have a <br>
voice and a vote on the direction KZYX goes, and
apparently this is the <br>
only way, even though you've got literally millions of
tax dollars in <br>
grants over the last 25 years, so...<br>
<div><br>
</div>
It's coming up on three years since I offered my show
to you <br>
--description, long good history, letters of
reference, letters to your <br>
Program Advisory Committee (which I found out a year
later doesn't even <br>
exist), 15 years of samples, jumped through all your
hoops, continued <br>
email contact and updating, and you've taken zero
steps to put Memo of <br>
the Air: Good Night Radio on KZYX. Given my safe and
wonderful and <br>
good-natured track record in teaching and publishing
and radio I <br>
consider it to be a measure of your incompetence that
my show was not on <br>
KZYX within six months. That would have been late
summer of 2012.<br>
<div><br>
</div>
*Two thousand (2000) (!) regular $50 memberships don't
add up to what <br>
KZYX management scarfs up in personal pay, where none
of the people <br>
actually doing the work of radio are paid a cent, nor
even allowed <br>
autonomy in the content and operation of their own
shows. That's one of <br>
the things that I'm going to vote to change.<br>
<div><br>
</div>
Happy new year.<br>
<div><br>
</div>
Marco McClean, box 1497, Mendocino, CA 95460<br>
