www.wtmd.org would do me fine if I lived in Baltimore.

I listened to WTMD for awhile maybe a year or so ago and then had to let it go because it drove me so crazy. Way, way too much Dave Matthews and Tegan And Sara, neither of whom I can stand let alone constantly. Lots of Sondre Lerchre(sp?) and John Mayer too. Some good songs at times but just not my cup of tea at all. Will settle for it in a pinch if I'm desparate but if I'm home, there is so much more online that suits me far, far better.

I would agree. Still, it's better than any other Balt/DC option for free car radio.

Yes, with a cd player, you'll get 100% satisfaction. I guess I'm so picky that no matter what radio station it is, even something on the net, I'm only going to like no more than 20% of the songs.

Yeah, I'll give you that. But if I'm in my car, I just pop in a CD. If that goes up, than WTMD might just win out while I'm driving in this area.

I think he meant that people should be protesting Bush's inauguration instead of whfs being taken off the air if they want to protest something. I whole-heartedly agree.

Do you think it's a good or bad thing to protest on Inaguration Day? Good - more people being around to join the protest. Bad - the news cameras are going to be too busy covering the other shit to pay much attention.

What's more likely to be effective - protesting against Bush or the new HFS?

Neither. But protesting Bush is a more valuable use of time if you want to stand out in freezing temps for a cause.
