Hmmm... I wonder if he would have had greater success if he took an 
air-shift! Certainly, he'd have had name-recognition! That, alone, may have brought-in 
some loyal listeners! Hire an Office Manager to handle the majority of the 
paperwork, so he can focus more on the operations/sound of the station... but it 
didn't happen that way. Shame.

I wonder, though... there must be a number of stories here of Personalities 
who went on to become Owners... I'd like to see some success stories. :)
