I appreciate the compliment, I think. If none of us, even the 
cheerleaders, can have an impact why are we bothering to discuss it. 
Let's go back to EAS. Nothing would please the dark side more than 
for us to move on and let them cash the checks until we wake up and 
find we can't find our signals.

If I hadn't received so many phone calls and emails from programmers 
and managers/owners of non-Dominion stations honestly worried about 
what's happening I probably would have made a comment and gone on to 
something else. I've even kept in touch with old major market 
programmer friends who are subjects of the Dominion and can't speak 
out. They're worried about the future of the industry. Many are 
considering other lines of work for fear of losing their jobs. If it 
doesn't work it's the programmers who'll be fired. This isn't 
showbiz. It's Wurlitzer.

Sometimes it's just easier and less tiring to allow yourself to be 
assimilated. I'm considering the option.
