"What a magnificent web site! I now live in KC but lived there for a number of years. Lincoln is not a place to get wealthy with a business like yours-unfortunately. I was aware of this years ago when my cousin's second wife who worked in radio sales in the area filled me in. You could probably make some money down in the Portland area but I suspect you would not like living there....... Actually the business community in Lincoln is fairly typical of New England...... A friend of mine in Rutland, VT had a similar problem about a decade ago with his radio station. Tons of people listened but he could hardly find any advertisers. Good luck though, it is a very nice web site. If I get up that way again, I'll look you folks up, in the meantime I'll visit the area online. You've got a great site and the potential and possibilities for it are endless, but just not up there." - Kansas City, MO

"Very interesting photo of the day. American made cars (wages and benefits for American workers) with the backdrop of the economic engine of the Lincoln region (wages and benefits to area workers so they can buy one of those cars). In America we have allowed too many manufacturing jobs to be shipped overseas and too much of our capital to be invested in foreign countries. Now we buy cheap foreign goods and run up huge trade deficits and we wonder why our economy is so bad! Your comment in Tidbits about buying, insuring, and financing your new car locally has the same important message about support for the local economy. " - Southern Maine

"Your photos of Christmas in our town this year were outstanding! And, thank you for all the work that you're putting into the whole web site. On a humorous side note, I noticed on the Christmas section that you asked folks to patronize the businesses who helped by sponsoring that section. 2 thoughts- there should be more (I know you'll agree with that :-), and, the humorous part- one is Clay's Funeral Home. I got a chuckle out of that and I'm sure Hervey would too! Merry Christmas Lee and Connie and keep up the good work." - Lincoln
