Slugging Rules Broken Talk Radio

   I keep earplugs handy.  I find the attitude "my car, my rules" rather rude.  My car, my guests -- even if one of them might be Miss HannityFan.

I don�t care for the Sean Hannity show either, but as a slug I will listen to what ever the drive has on.

	Simply put, I choose not to listen to WTOP. Instead, I choose to listen to Sean Hannity (After all this is my car). This afternoon on the Sean Hannity show there was a debate over the recent arrest of Prof Gates. This apparently made one of the rider's uncomfortable (the OP), and towards the end of the trip he confronted me (and IMO not in the most polite way), to which I replied, "I choose to listen to Sean Hannity. In the future, you can choose not to ride with me. I will not be offended by this."

	Whatever happened to listening to WTOP radio? Today I rode home with a young man who listens to a talk radio station that was racially controversial. He seems not to know the rules for approved stations to listen to. He drives a blue Jetta with Tag XUP-7542. He picks up from Pentagon between the hours of 3 pm and 4 pm. The system does work. We cannot turn our heads to things that may cause the system to fail. This is my first posting after 15 years of slugging.
