Given how we have a hard enough time TALKING about radio here without 
flaming each other out, do you really think that we could RUN a radio 
station without killing each other?  Try picking a format!  Let's see, 
beautiful music, long-haired classical for the elite, smooth jazz, 
blues, folk, "progressive" talk, conservative talk, local talk.  We 
could do a different format each hour!
