Ìý
"This memo does not reflect ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ policy and there is no ban on callers of any age gaining access to our airwaves. We welcome everyone, as long as they have something interesting to say, and every day people in their seventies, eighties and nineties light up ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ local radio with vivid contributions.
Ìý
"Our Editors do not want to exclude older listeners, although they do have to review their schedules to reflect changing tastes and times.
Ìý
"I am today reminding Editors of our policy."
