You can't just leave us hanging there...what did you write?

I like to think it comes from the fact that most of us are rather secure
in our perspective...and also thanks to Dave's moderation...and while
we don't get to read what he might censor, I sense there has been little
kept from our view these last few years...

[Almost nothing.  For the record, I don't see moderation as
 censorship.  Mostly, I'm a spam & virus filter.  If a post is
 explicitly about music and doesn't have a nasty personal attack,
 it goes through.  I might (and sometimes do) disagree 100% with
 the viewpoint being expressed, but that's utterly irrelevant as
 far as I'm concerned.  99.9% of the time having Kerberos at the
 gate is enough, it seems.  -Dave  :-) ]

It is good to have you back.  It was also refreshing to read of your
opportunities to broadcast on WRR.  I hope they give you some lattitude
in what you broadcast.
