Thanks, David,
I look forward to the website being more user friendly ie more direct/less like a scavenger hunt. 
What may be familiar to you may not be obvious to others in search of information.If the inner workings of the station were more easily accessible, there might be fewer pleas for transparency.Isn't he job of media s'posed to be Communication?

Gothrough at your leisure. On the KZYX website one only has to explore “About”,look under “Station Business”, and click on “Minutes”. As with all of the otherongoing incorrect suggestions that there is a lack of transparency, one canfind 7 years of minutes posted by the General Manager and the board.    David    David Steffen KZYX BusinessDevelopment (707)895-2324 office (707)322-9895 cell (707)895-2451 fax

Subject: [Kzyxtalk] verifyingmemories & deadlines    In the service of winnowing out accuracy from hearsay, would it bepossible to find & cite minutes (or video or audio recordings) of pastboard meetings? 

 Is the application period for GM now closed?

Thanks for the clarification. My source for the information was someone one thehiring committee, but memories can be faulty. 

I am not aware of any other "falsehoods" that I have circulated butam aware that occasionally my sources may be inaccurate. If there are any otherareas where my sourced material differs from yours, I am always interested incomparing them, so that myself and the  community can get as close to arealistic interpretation of the truth as possible. In this way we all makebetter choices. 

I would like to thank Norman DeValle for setting up this listserve allowing thetype of open and transparent communication necessary for this process, and hopesomeday to hear his voice back on the air at KZYX.
