With liberty and justice for all.
"It's time we show the Fire Nation that we believe in our beliefs as
much as they believe in theirs." -Princess Yue
The recording of last night's (2017-02-24) KNYO and KMEC Memo of the
Air: Good Night Radio show is available to download and enjoy via
http://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com
At the beginning of the recording you'll hear the very tail end of a
propaganda film about what a great favor the U.S. government did for
hundreds of thousands of slanty-eyed American citizens by spiriting them
away to prison camps. Also it's about how, though some of them were
undoubtedly loyal to foreign powers, evidenced by their being resentful
of being plucked out of their lives, most of them understood the
necessity and were delighted to help out the war effort by living and
working and raising their children in the desert surrounded by guard
towers and machine guns and razor wire. Just the very end of that, where
the announcer tells that all this was carried out kindly and humanely
for a reason: that /American/ soldiers captured and imprisoned by the
Axis powers might be treated well in return, and we can all go back to
normal once the traitors among us have been driven out forever. Then
part of an interview with George Takei (Mister Sulu in Star Trek, and
Hiro Nakamura's father in Heroes, among other roles he played), who was
four when he and his family were kidnapped, and who stood with other
little children in a prison schoolroom and pledged allegiance to the
flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it
stands: one nation, /with liberty and justice for all/. That's just the
first three minutes.
Then there's the show, of course. I did the best I could, and I even
dredged up all your favorite yodels for the musical breaks. I hope you
like it. There'll be another one next week, and the week after that, and
so on until I get it right.
Also at http://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com you'll find directions to many
non-radio though worthwhile goods that I found while putting radio shows
together. Items such as:
Hands-down the most impressive music video you have ever seen, or I will
eat a hat of my choosing.

A moving film of hundreds of still photos of Otto Lilienthal, the first
man to really fly, really flying.

And zombie accommodation (relocation, assimilation, whatever), the reality.
