  • Plotz 2.0

    Whether the source be a plentiful fridge of 'Fresca' or the lingering effects of cold medicine, David Plotz's contribuitions were cogent, informative and engaging. Mr. Plotz was even--dare I say it?--witty and insightful. Thanks.

  • GABFEST RE: BROOKS COLUMN

    REGARDING: GABFEST ON POTUS 08 (SLATE.COM) I heard your conversation regarding David Brooks vacuous column on Senator Obama. You indicated agreement that Obama seems not to ''take and action,'' to be ''too thoughtful,'' to not have substance. Really? This young, bi-racial man who grew up without a father in the home, raised by a single mother ...

  • Not ready to see CBS news go

    Honestly, I'd hate to see CBS News go as a whole. Sure, it's not great, and isn't bound to get any better, but it does provide some things that other sources are severely lacking. CBS News Radio. Sure this could stick around if they ditch news or just make it part of the entertainment division, but their radio uses their television as a crutch. ...

  • Radio...Live Transmission...

    Is there an R.E.M. reference in there somewhere?;)

  • Thank you very much!

    Anne Applebaum is right. I remember stories from my father as well as my uncle how much they appreciated the fact that they were able to listen in their Youth to RIAS and similar broadcasts behind the iron curtain. They listened out of curiosity for real news. But of course also out of love for music that was not part of the state sponsored ...

  • Bandolier consistently has good posts.

    That's why, and it is nice to know he will be keeping it on track. If Hillary wins by more than 103K votes, she would have won the popular votes in this campaign so far. Michigan and Florida have not been seated, but Michigan has picked it's delegates (Saturday). Michigan and Florida are both swing states, so the DNC hemming and hawing over ...

  • Re: Wake up America

    agree. We need Radio Free America, this is ridiculous and that scaredy cat Obama just called off the rest of the debates during the campaign

  • Scrims = (Undesirable) Faraday Cage?

    What exactly are the dimensions of the holes, or any gaps, in the scrims being used, especially the ones in the Princeton University garage completed in 2000, which appear to surround/shield the entire sides of the structure? It appears that such scrims would serve as a Faraday cage, blocking radiofrequency (RF) signals from reaching from the ...

  • Re: August Gabfest team

    Forgive me. Unless otherwise stated, the August Gabfests are emanating from the New York ''radio room.'' (A grand name, but really just a closet with a few microphones and sundry audio equipment in it.) For the last few months (since Andy got called to video), I've been recording the DC-based Gabfests from New York, via an ISDN line. The ...

  • Hallows superb despite minor flaws

    Yes, Molly Weasely shouting ''bitch'' was the best line in the book, and Dumbledore's explanation of life and death to Harry was a bit lame, but the number of wonderful things was far greater than the annoyances. Among my favorites were the excellent development of the goblins and the Potterwatch radio in the forest (a blend of pirate radio and ...
