hi maria. yep, i'm listening.
cleaning the house and listening!
I think that I'll be out shoveling the walk and spreading salt at the top of the hour!
and yes, please someone give john another show. i keep missing him on his guest appearances on 13!
i thought the snow wasn't supposed to show til 1 p.m???
Yes, Maria is right. Jump on Onorato about the voting machines. The machines we have in Allegheny County, from ES&S, have be 'uncertified' in many other places in the county. They have been known to not count the votes with any amount of trust.
last time i called in, i giggled because of nerves and i'm still trying to live that down!
yes, the voting machines, please, someone?????
Calls can't be placed to the studio phone, 412 333-1360. All circuits are busy. Not sure what's up.
tried at 9:50
You might want to call out to Onorato to get him on the line...???
Ask Dan if Luke and his wife have ever been out of the country before.
Dan has been to China on a junket. The windfalls of that trip should be bearing fruit now -- right???
I don't want our parks to be made into public-private places. We don't want Elsie Hillman telling us, again, what public swim pools we can open and what hours they should be and what needs to be closed.
Let's for a public park district, using the model that is deployed in Illinois.
We should mege Parks in the County with Citiparks and school district (afterschools) -- into a new entity, a Pgh Park District. And, that should take parks OFF of GRANT STREET.
The ES&S machines are decertified by many regions.
The ES&S staffers slip USB drives in and out of the machines as votes were counted.
We don't want a consultant to verify. We want open source machines.
Dan should have NOT purchased those machines.
The FEDS don't have voter machine authority. Onorato was a wimp. The law of the land is on the side of local control.

Machine in Allegheny County is used in 17 counties. Yes, the PA vote is something to worry about.
It is a bad machine. It was a bad decision.
Onorato is with comfort -- and he is wrong.
Why do you keep whoring for McIntire? This is a guy who wrote on his blog that he couldn't wait to bang Betty Ford now that Gerald was dead. He's like a 12-year-old who just learned dirty words. No wonder he can't keep a job.
