exactly....... that is what I did.. After at least 15 years I stopped
donating and have no intentions of donating again until they increase
the classical music broadcasts, (which I doubt will ever happen) The
vast majority of people, well educated or not are not interested in
classical music.........  I dont think this issue is any more complicated
that.
