Listening to the media minutes segment on creating a public trust fund to finance a national public media system reminds me of Jerold Starr and Citizens for Independent Public Broadcasting. Haven't seen much of him lately, but he could be a good guest on the program. Plus, I believe I saw a video of you, Bob, at Portland State given a talk about a national public broadcasting system. If you have a copy of that video, maybe post it on here or facebook (or any of the social networking sites). Thanks for all the work.
