I will often drift into Classical but rarely something out of the demimonde such as opera, especially old blood-and-thunder Wagner. I used to listen to NPR at least ten hours a day but they have now become so leftie-loonie that I can no longer tolerate their biased and inaccurate reporting and "analysis". I will note that the popularity ratings for US radio shows is now: 1) Rush Limbaugh 2) Morning Edition (NPR) 3) All Things Considered (NPR) 4) Sean Hannity 5) Michael Savage I feel sad about my rupture from NPR as I was a long-time supporter. But the entire network has done this dramatic lurch to the Left, from the news guys to Keillor, that I just can no longer support it. If nothing else, I'll pull out a CD of von Karajan doing the Jupiter Symphony or the Julliard Quartet doing Beethoven's Grosse Fuge. My blood pressure is lower and my cholesterol count is down. BBC is far worse. Those guys are all crypto-Bolshies in drag. God Save the Mark! Marc msmall at aya.yale.edu Cha robh b?s fir gun ghr?s fir!
