[Kzyxtalk] Correcting John Sakowicz

Really, Jane? Your outreach fell short. Where's my invitation? I'm one
of the founding programmers. As was Sister Yasmin.  Els Cooperrider's
show was invaluable to the County those years she was on the air Have
you made any attempt to contact her? --beth bosk

 There are many points I'd like to respond to in John Sakowicz's most
recent assault on KZYX, but let me correct two points he makes that
are absolutely wrong:
 1) The KZYX birthday party is NOT a fundraiser. Admission is $5. We
kept the admission low to be sure everyone who wanted to come was
able to afford a ticket. Food and microbrews are extra, but we will
be lucky to break even on the event because of the costs involved.
 2) Meg Courtney and I, as KZYX board members, are spearheading and
organizing the event. We both felt deeply that this station milestone
was too important for our community not to celebrate. The event is far
from an "ego trip" for John Coate and Mary Aigner. The focus of
everyone involved in putting on the event is making the 25th birthday
a fantastic party that honors everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, who has
been a programmer, staff, board member, volunteer, donor, listener or
member over the years. 

 We hope everyone who cares about the station will join us at the
Boonville Fairgrounds October 11 to celebrate the station's
remarkable creation and survival, through thick and thin, for 25
years.

 Sincerely,
 Jane Futcher
