[UK-CONTEST] Gonna write me a letter

You beat me to it!  A similar letter occurred to me while listening on
20/30 last nite - why can't all these people come on the bands when I am
not there?  Why should 100s (if not 1000s) have all this thrill of the
chase and completely disregard my needs?  Do they know who I am?

I pay my subs you know.
