- Exactly. The only person who gets to chew up valuable air time with
- repetitive stuff heard many times before is Rush. I know he hates to talk
- about himself, and that his show is consistantly ignored by the mainstream
- media, etc. I guess that we're really fortunate that Rush isn't shy about
- chewing up air time when it comes to tooting his own horn.

- I've considered calling sometime and wishing Rush "Moderate Democratic
- Nanodittos" (or maybe "Picodittos").
