ok i understand. but please listen. the current owners of our local station only want you to go to church at their church. they only care about you if you are giving them money. we have more lost people in this town because of them then we do because of marilyn manson!! our local station is disliked by most of the community already. i once worked there. a lot of people still talk to me. the #1 question i get daily is when do we finally get rid of the bridge!! good ridance bridge 92.7!! hello klove!! btw the bridge is VTed!! so whats the diffrence..local or national. its still coming out of another state!! btw if you say they have good ratings..yea they do. they have over 25,000 members at their church. probably many of them have diaries. and recently when it was announced that they were being sold a lot of them quit listning. see the arbitrons. the last 3 months they have gone down futher than in any book the past 10 years!!<P ID="signature">______________
deep tracks xm 40 for those who arent single minded</P>
