I’m going to invite five folks to become new subscribers to take this person’s place.

At KSUT I had a conservative member who often called to complain. We were playing music by the then scorned Dixie Chicks, now the Chicks. And countless other slights from his point of view. He would rant, ā€œAnd I’m a member.ā€ I finally wrote him a check for his $100 membership and sent it in a hand written note that said, ā€œThe success of our radio station is based upon great relationships. It would appear that we are not a good fit for you at this time so I’m refunding your membership.ā€ The calls stopped and then two years later he quietly became a member again.

This post from Wilderness Watch in reference to the "Explore Act" which passed with bi-partisan agreement should be read by all of us! I remember commenting before it was passed but apparently, folks who disagreed with it, were ignored. I'm pretty sure that anyone who reads this blog might feel the way I do - we do NOT need more humans tramping about in the very few Wilderness areas that are left!
