    My local NPR station KUT-FM in Austin,Texas is having the 
bi-annual fund raiser right now. In between answering phones I 
found out that the station is having a very rough time renewing
the terms with American Public Radio to carry APHC for next year.
APR folks want the stations to broadcast the show "live". The
show is carried here from 9-11 p.m. saturday night. We have a
very popular show called Twine Time from 6-9 p.m. and have All
Things Considered from 5-6 p.m..So in short we may have to give
up APHC if do not carry it live. I personally would like to have
it live (because 9-11 p.m. slot has virtually wiped out my
social life),but giving it up totally will be a fatal blow 
for addicted fans like me. 
    My question to fellow wobegonians : Do you have a similar
problem in your area? Have you heard anything about it? Do you 
know if GK has something to do with all this?
    I wonder what will we shy persons in Austin do without APHC?
