Wind Ensemble, the Columbia U SummerWind Ensemble, which I manage, the Hot Lavender Swing Band and some other groups from time to time. I also host an internet radio show on financial topics (www.smartwomen.org click on radio) which airs Monday, March 8 at 7pm EST). You can also check out my website, which is under construction. www.debrasilver.com I guess I am surprised that it's ok for a liberal OT post to be aired, but it's not ok for someone to disagree with it. . . . . . ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Tune" To: Sent: Thursday, March 04, 2004 1:41 AM Subject: Re: [TBN-L] OT - Maybe a Trolling for Victory for Public Broadcasting > I must retract: > > Debra Silver is a practicing attorney in NYC.
