btw, apparently Pat Kenny was talking about the whole NoLimits debacle on his radio show yesterday morning (Wed 23rd). Something about having recieved more calls/e-mails etc than on ANY subject he's ever covered before! Also been hassling Esat to give him a statement about the "2000" situation, which they have promised to do. Mmmm, will the reply be as swift as the now legendary "second letter" we've all been waiting for?

Did anyone hear the whole thing?

This is currently being discussed by the committee. (Don't worry- these discussions don't last too long before we come to a decision)- If we can use Mr. Kenny's interest in the topic and the reaction he's seeing to having it aired- we will.

It would certainly show our knockers and doubters something if we could get a couple of representatives on the Late Late Show or even on the radio show (as I believe the Late Late finishes its run soon) to get a seriously big audience for what we're saying and bring it all out on the biggest chat show on Irish telly...

fingers crossed... thanks for the info, Black Frank

First motorbike in the bible ???? - a Triumph! - 'And yea verily did Moses strike down the ammmanites, - and all the land did hear the roar of his triumph !!!'

Tonight is the last Late Show as far as I know...

And he'll prolly be off the radio too. Anyway, there are more radio stations than RTE1.
And Pat Kenny's reach is more than likely not that important. I think.

Onwards and upwards!

Thinking about it, - yes it's unfortunate that the Late Late is ending its season and we can't get on it, but Questions and Answers or Prime Time may be more suitable.

You can hear a Real Player version of PK's radio show on http://www.rte.ie/radio/patkenny/index.html

BTW, his original "interview" with Mr. Conlan-Trant from ESAT was excellent. He devoured him and spat him out!!

Id suggest you get in contact with the Prime Time researchers and talk to them about it, they may take you up on doing something about it.

too bad about the late late....there's always Gerry Ryan who does have an interest in the IT area somewhat, he did have some callers on when the SNL debacle broke.
But as i've mentioned already somewhere else we need someone with access to the media to take up the cause and push it to dominance in the public arena it is only this way that the politicians etc. will sit up and take notice, remember there's an election not too far away, now is the time to plan!

This is very much part of our strategy, hence yesterday's interview with Elana Kehoe in Irish Times.

ANYONE with ANY media contacts, please forward them to Elana - see Contact Us on www.irelandoffline.com
