@fmf saidThere're some good ones on there that I'd forgotten about. These retrospectives are good, an Onion once planted in the sum - total of humankinds' literary achievements should never be allowed to fade and die.

@indonesia-phil saidI listened to one of the programs and thought it was quite good, not amazing, but pretty good. Why is there negativity about it in here?

@mercury saidI think it's not so much the program as the people involved in it. Further than that you'd have to ask the anonymous down - thumbers to explain why they do it, which they won't.

@indonesia-phil saidI see, but aren’t you involved in it?

@indonesia-phil saidRelentless Red once explained why, according to his way of thinking, anonymously thumbing down posts written by people here who make the programmes is justified. Mercury might do well to ask him.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidRelentless Red pointedly refused to criticize the thumbing down of Indonesia Phil. A handful of posters have been quite persistently thumbing down any mention of the radio programme by Indonesia Phil, so Relentless Red has had plenty of opportunity. i remember him also refusing to say if he'd listened to Phil's part of the show. Relentless Red's pompous animosity clearly trumps his desire to demonstrate the "good wishes" he said he extended to Phil.
I hope Indonesia Phil corrects you on that.

@mercury saidYep, and so far I have 4 red thumbs for my first post on this page. There's no reason to thumb down a radio show, so it must be something I said. It's okay, the thumbs are vacuous anyway unless someone claims them and gives their reasons.

@divegeester saidso do all of me
I’ve just thumbed down every post in this thread, and you know what… I feel very slightly proud of myself.
