Pratt,
I have been a listener since News/Talk 1290 began carrying your show. Your voice during this “event” has been a rare and welcome change from anything else I’ve been hearing. I’ve been trying to understand what the future looks like and one of the biggest roadblocks I see to a recovery from this economic disaster is our local, state, and federal governments’ appetites for resources.
Tax revenue to all three of these is obviously going to be going way down for the next few years. Will these governments be asked to do what business owners and private sector employees have been told their only option is, to do without?
I have seen our local officials on television with lots of “orders” on what I need to be doing, but have heard nothing about their plans to slash spending in the face of the upcoming budget disaster.
Will the taxpayers in Wichita Falls still be asked to pay a million dollars a year to maintain the MPEC, our multi-purpose event center, that has acoustics so bad many entertainers play in the old auditorium when they come to town?

Mayor Santellana & Judge Gossum’s jobs are to handle the city and county budgets, I suggest they focus on that and give up on their “scientific” careers.
K.T.
