" The DJs mentioned in the BBC report are from TX (if I remember correctly) and the DJs mentioned at the beginning of the trhread are from Ohio..."

I avoid Clear Channel radio stations like the plague. Clear Channel, a corporation based in TX owns hundreds of stations nation wide, probably some where you are. They are the Burger King of radio.

The stations are cookie cutter stamped out like factory cheap aluminum bike frames (grin) featuring shock jocks and top 40. My favorite local radio station (KFOG) constantly parodies them....and...KFOG has regular guest speakers from the San Francisco Bike coalition answering questions from riders, peds and drivers about bike issues...wish more stations did that.
