Thanks, Wayne -- all their programs, which are archived for several =20
years, can be heard item by item on their website, which is cbc.ca/=20
quirks .  This week's show was the first of the 2009-2010 season and =20
was originally broadcast in early September, I believe.

I can't resist another advertisement for CBC Radio on our =20
environment.  David Suzuki has a brand new radio show, "The Bottom =20
Line" (cbc.ca/thebottomline), which started just today and will be =20
broadcast on Sunday mornings at 11 a.m. for an hour.  Today was a =20
good hour, with a Haida and Jim Prentice in the Queen Charlotte =20
Islands where the surrounding sea has been newly protected around the =20=

national park, plus Nicholas Stern, former chief economist of the =20
World Bank, etc.

Suzuki's final word this week was let's put the "eco" back into =20
economics (the same root as for ecology).

Three cheers for CBC and Maritime Noon etc.!

Cheers from Jim in Wolfville
