John and Ken and others take on CARB fight

As most of you know, KFI (640AM) has been taking on the California Air Resources Board in their afternoon John and Ken Show (more than 1 million listeners per day). We attempted to call into the show last Friday but were screened out - they had Insurance Commissioner John Poizner coming on and didn't want to take any calls. Instead, they asked us to send an email, which we did.

You too should be a part of this effort. John and Ken are heard in Southern California and the San Francisco area - but they are also heard in Sacramento, especially the Capitol building. Other radio talk show hosts - all the leading stations in their markets - are taking up the fight to rein in CARB:
Dr. Bill Wattenburg on KGO 810 AM with more than a million listeners throughout the West
Ray Appleton KMJ 580AM in the Central Valley
Chris Reed KOGO 600AM, San Diego

Combined, more than 5 million listeners to these shows are hearing the message - stop the over-regulation of our industry. The only way to keep the ball rolling is to call and email these programs so they know they have an audience for the message. Here is the contact information:
