Labeling them as complaints seems to serve those who just want to maintain the status quo. That's what keeps the City marginal at best. Werner Yahoo!

Yes perception is rooted is ones sensory abilities and cognitive process. That does not however change reality. Consider such things as blindness or hearing deficiencies. Neither of which negate the reality, the fact, that there is light and sound. Heisenberg is routinely misinterpreted. It deals with quantum physics and sub-atomic particles.

When things get very small its enough to move the object. Thus the principal that there is uncertainly in measuring that object. Hence Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

Something Gabrielle said recently made me think of this concept. I think (hope) there are many people in our city who have good ideas that they would like to be heard and discussed on the city level, but I also think that it may be tough to find the time to actually attend council meetings and such. Of course, it would take moderation and time, which costs money, but perhaps the effectiveness of such a forum would justify the cost. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, Michael W.

[AsburyPark] Pay Freeze and Freedom of Information Act relief
in Obama's Admin not in AP. In an attempt to deliver on pledges of a transparent government, Obama said he would change the way the federal government interprets the Freedom of Information Act. He said he was directing agencies that vet requests for information to err on the side of making information public not to look for reasons to legally withhold it an alteration to the traditional standard of evaluation. Just because a government agency has the legal power to keep information private does not mean that it should, Obama said. Reporters and public-interest groups often make use of the law to explore how and why government decisions were made; they are often stymied as agencies claim legal exemptions to the law. For a long time now, there's been too much secrecy in this city (washington), Obama said. He also called on pay Freeze for those making over 100k on the current staff. Yahoo!

Since it is a new format you can't really tell who the sponsors will be so you can't complain to them either. The FCC, allegedly, does not control content so they can't help out either.

Now, they are just another station playing the same stuff as a number of other stations. If you look at the APP article, there are a larger number of comments about the change, almost 100% negative.

Re: [AsburyPark] Save GRock
Grock was just a shell of the station that the old 106.3 was. As far as sponsoring shows in the area, most of the time radio stations aren't bringing these acts to the area they are just promoting the show through advertising. The acts will still come, the venues will just have to find other places to promote the shows from. The old 106.3 routinely packed clubs with the shows they sponsored. I've been to shows that Grock promoted that only brought a dozen people to The Saint. It didn't surprise me at all that the station changed formats. Many of the old 106.3 fans bolted when the corporation took over and judging by the way they sometimes struggled with the shows they promoted, they didn't have a fraction of the audience numbers. charlie wrote: Havn't posted in awhile...

[AsburyPark] Re: Save GRock
Terrestrial radio is a dead medium. It's going to have to reinvent itself in order to compete with the technology that's replacing it. We now live in an on demand culture. The internet killed both the radio star and the video star, and it's given rise to the YouTube star, where everybody has been given their between clicks length seconds of fame. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, lightgrw light...@... wrote: Grock was just a shell of the station that the old 106.3 was. As far as sponsoring shows in the area, most of the time radio stations aren't bringing these acts to the area they are just promoting the show through advertising. The acts will still come, the venues will just have to find other places to promote the shows from. The old 106.3 routinely packed clubs with the shows they sponsored. I've been to shows that Grock promoted that only brought a dozen people to The Saint. It didn't surprise me at all that the station changed formats. Many of the old 106.3 fans bolted when the corporation took over and judging by the way they sometimes struggled with the shows they promoted, they didn't have a fraction of the audience numbers. charlie wrote: Havn't posted in awhile... I remember the original station when I was in HS, FM106.3. That was a good station... Then it sold and out came G rock. G rock was pretty bad when it first came out, for a few years actually... But It got better. I turned on the station the other day unaware of the change.. Wow, it's pure garbage! In time it may get better, the same way G rock did. Who knows. But it's already off to a bad since they are promoting a cheese based music style. G rock differed, they did suck at first, but at least they started out with heart promoting what the station had alwasy been about. Who knows, we will see what happens.
