I don't mind them taking the hat around - but, I wish there were some magick
button or back channel or secret code that one could use after having kicked in
for the entertainment. Because the constant grovelling for shekels is certainly
not entertaining - and is mostly grating after a short spell.
 
 DD> I didn't realise that WGMC was a high-school station as their an-air
 DD> staff, signal, and music programming belies what I hear on most kid-run
 DD> stations. Then I heard a station ID stating that it was a service of
 DD> the Greece Central School District with studios in the Greece
 DD> Olympia High School media center. Of course they have some eclectic
 DD> programming, too. The Lithuanian language Dainos Aidas, a Turkish
 DD> language show and The Latin Essence, a four-hour program of Latin music
 DD> broadcast in Spanish as well as weekly blues, soul-jazz and avant garde
 DD> segments. Nice station. And a positive example of "Your Tax Dollars At
 DD> Work".

 NB> We have some talented young people around, led by some very innovative
 NB> adults, also pretty talented..  :)   Also that station has been around
 NB> for a while now, with, I think, reasonably consistent adult mentors.

 NB> The Youth Orchestras in the area also rival (or even surpass) many
 NB> adult ones, and the high school theater productions are likewise
 NB> usually more professional than one would expect...  Of course, the area
 NB> is a hotbed of the arts, of all styles and genres... :)
