Scott,

If you are deeply offended turn it off.  I for one like to hear all the 
different perspectives that Dan plays on his short wave report.

Who are you to censor what I can and can not listen to.   Pretty soon, 
if you have your way we can all listen to the canned music coming from KMFB.

I have read many of your pieces and find them interesting and 
informative.  Perhaps you could do a few on the positive things that are 
happening here on the Coast.  Things are not as simple and black and 
white as you present them.  It is always easier to find fault with what 
others are doing but it is a whole lot harder to come up with some 
positive solutions to any of the many problems we face as a society and 
as a community.

Become part of the solution and stop being part of the problem !!

Thank you.

Kelly Grimes
