[Kzyxtalk] Censorship

[David Gurney]

Why not just get the hook - for the whole current management of KZYX?
Or term limits, of say, seven years?
Isn't 20 years long enough for one stattion manager?

With all due respect to Mary Aigner & friends, can we please move the
stattion out of Philo, to Fort Bragg, Ukiah or Mendocino, so that more in
the county, including the youth, can take part in our/their station?
