Tao Stoic 114

"The B.B.C., Master, have now modernised their jangles. They are more in line with the pop-syndicate now."

"Aye, but have you noticed also that they interrupt, without the least necessity, their commentary programs in order to tell you that you are listening to the B.B.C. and follow it up by such a hideous jangle, the sound of machines. It is typical for children's stupidity that for every program, one first has to listen to absurd noises, neither music, nor informative. Knowing the yearly cost of operation, divide it by the 31 million seconds, one can guess at the colossal waste per day. Then, take the reeling-off of names in their music request programs. Over the whole world, there may be 15 or 20 persons who know the mentioned, yet millions of persons have to listen to it, in order to satisfy the absurd feeling of control it gives the requester (Applause Paradox). Certainly, a 'Real', sane and fair WorldGovernment, would take a hand in this insanity. Women and Children first, should be the rule in the fight against polluting the ether, through self-imposed, rights-taking yokels. It is crucial for aesthetics, i.e. for the intelligent development of everybody, women and children first."
