I haven't heard a peep out of James or anyone else on the "right"

loudly.

If he didn't want to hear you, why is he carrying on an argument
with you on a newsgroup? And if he wanted to stop you from broadcasting,
why would he recommend the dismantling of the FCC and "squatter's rights"

control of the FCC and ban people like you instead, but that's the
diametric opposite of what he proposes.
