I'm sick to death...

... of all the right-wing ranting and mindless paranoia on the Broadcast and Pubtech lists.

Today somebody got spam in what they thought was Arabic, so two other list members advised him to call Homeland Security, while a third railed against "liberal activist judges" for ruling that people proposing to put up new towers have to take into account their effect on migrating birds. He was particularly incensed that the judge wants tower owners to solicit comments from the "ignorant", "uninformed" public rather than relying on "experts".

Oh, and one of them ran screaming out of a transmitter building a couple months ago after discovering a snake in a cable raceway.

Do us all a favor and fuck off and die, and take your beer-swilling tea party friends with you.

Yeah, I'm not in a good mood today.

A couple years ago I got called on a tower job and while they were getting the manager, they put me on hold and the hold music was what they were broadcasting on the station. The host was explaining that the problem with voting for John McCain was that he would "take away our God-given right to shoot fags."

When the manager came on, I explained that I wasn't going to be able to take on any additional work right now. *sigh* Because there are some people I'm just not going to help.
