See? We do love you after all, despite the fact that you think I hate you. (You never did answer my email reply.)
 
Re: KGO Horse Race (What they say / What they mean)

What they say: "We want to be your radio station...Tell us what you want to hear!"

What they mean: We've made our decision. :D
 
Just my opinion -- there are several great candidates for the job, and I'd have no problem whatsoever with Christine, or Copie, or Angie Coiro or Karel ... but I like John Rothmann a lot out of the choices named.

That said, if there was a spot for write-in candidates (rather than simply "Someone Else"), my pick would be Alex Bennett.

DJ
 
Funny that more people thought Bernie would get his old slot back than Angie Coiro, Brian Copeland or Edie Sellers.

Good luck on your soon-to-be new full time job, Christine! ;)

Christine: does this mean you'll now be able to afford buying KSCO in Santa Cruz? ;D

Alex Bennett is an excellent choice.

My problem with everybody who has hosted the show so far (which is where I derived the list) is that I don't believe anybody has the staying power of night after night freshness. They all seem to become mundane after a few days.
 
Christine would do it for me.

And "ABK" ... anybody but Karel, though I admit, I love it when he implodes over this topic, like he did on air when Gene Burns did two hours on the topic and why Karel wouldn't be the winner of the time slot.

Karel doesn't get it.
 
I at first thought Christine would be a good fill for the slot, but now I'm against it. The other night she had a guest on who spent the entire hour lambasting and attacking Bill Wattenburg as she did nothing to stop him, or at least stop using his name. It seemed unfair, and incredibly unprofessional. Think what you will of Bill, but he should have at least been there to defend himself. I dislike it when all stations do is talk about how other stations or hosts suck.

So now, I'm voting for Copeland or Rothman.
 
dear white menace..for your information..Bill Wattenberg has been attacking David Dionisi and his book "American Hiroshima" for ..well..years..now..I doubt very much he has ever even read the book..David Dionisi did not spend the"entire hour lambasting and attacking engineering phd watenberg" but rather pointing out what many scientists agree is a dangerous truth about nuke plants..the vulnerability of spent fuel pools(you know rod pool storage for up to twenty years after use in the reactor)..I agree with Wattenberg and so does Dionisi that the nuke plants produce very clean energy on the one hand(not in dispute) but the vulnerability to either accidental or intentional disruption of the water level or temperature of the storage pools on site is a scientific fact..The Nuclear Regulatory Commission says so..so when Bill says it would just mean a bad sunburn..should there be an explosion due to loss of coolant water (whether by airplane ..or much less complex sabotage) he's just full of...well....himself... do the research yourself..I included a link to a very conservative site(there are thousands of scientific sources on this) on my last program summary (Council of Foreign Relations...CFR) Bill Wattenberg has been challenged to have Dionisi on his show ..to refute him face to face..Dionisi isn't the least intimidated..If you think wattenberg "can't defend himself" you must not be listening to his nonsense about "sunburns:...

also about the "wattenberg" test with the F-4 phantom into the twelve foot concrete wall....which supposedly proves a plane couldn't harm a nuke plant...ask yourself some simple questions..was the twelve foot wall embedded(ie. anchored as a nuke containment structure would be/)?? Read the journal Science(clue ..It does not always support the wattenberg view) about how this was not a test of how a ..say 737 would affect a less movable twelve foot concrete wall..much of the energy in the phantom test absorbed in moving the movable wall forward. poor poor bill. he just can't shout me down ...when I have the m icrophone..unlike all of his callers who dare to ever ever disagree..I"m just suggesting that you do some of your own research on spent fuel rods and their care and potential.
 
I vote for Christine Craft.

She always has an interesting show about local (and some national) issues that have serious implications for all of us--not just the same blah, blah, about national politics. She can also hold her own in any debate.
