I agree with most of that, but the problem with Paul is that he never just expresses an opinion ... he ALWAYS puts forth everything on this subject as an absolute statement of hard fact, and he does it at every opportunity.  It's pretty over the top.

Let's not call Paul a troll.  He's got an opinion and point of view I have much 
sympathy with.  He repeats it because he believes in it.  You don't have to, 
but you should at least tolerate it.  It's true that these things (remote, 
internet, etc) are part of radio life now and that won't change.  I'm not 
trying to change anyone's opinion or what you do in the hobby.  But the opinion 
is perfectly legitimate, and we most definitely have lost something, along of 
course with some gains.  We'll all disagree on the measures of each.

For those of you that don't agree with my opinion, that's of course perfectly fine and 
expected.  For those of you that don't even understand it, please consider reading 
"Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance".  Pirsig says it better than I ever 
could.
