Good goin doc! I'm sorry I've stirred up such a pot of soup, but it's important that they understand that we aren't out there to be road kill. It's irresponsible on their part to promote such behavior. It just takes one angry driver listening to the show that has had just enough of a bad day then takes it to the level that he wants to gather points before he gets home. Thanks everyone for writing the station and staying on them about this.

He has referred me to Bruce Siceloff [email protected] 919-829-4527. He is aware of the problem and would be willing to write a story on this if we can provide him with transcripts or specific instances where there was an adverse outcome etc. I am going to call the EIB and let the Rush people know what the attitude is at his new radio station in the Triangle. Advertisers are next. Brian Taylor station manager will not return my calls.

I asked a radio host, who is also a tri-athlete about the situation with the show, and he advised me against calling. He said it's all about the show, and the more debate they can generate the better for them. They only care about the popularity of the show. He also said that no matter how prepared we are to call in, they will stir it up to their favor. I will tune in to see how the conversation goes.
