Yes, and welcome once again, DH. You are indeed among friends here, and your well-written rant is very much appreciated. Dont forget, if there's anything you'd like to let us know about R3, please feel free to post in the Playlist Programmes section of our website; or alternatively you can text, email, or twitter, or try our phone lines which will be open throughout the morning.
The time is now just coming up to 08:20, here's Hoedown by Aaron Copland..Comment

It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.Comment

"...the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

I tolerated Petroc until, as I was emailing someone, I heard him say to a listener, "Are you well?", OMG,
if not see your doctor, don't tell us.
A belated welcome from me Domeyhead.

Full sympathies with Domeyhead's "rant", but anyone who has seen Newswatch on BBC News24, when journalists and controllers are called in to respond to viewers' complaints and criticisms, will know that no one at the BBC ever admits to getting anything wrong. Bland justifications are routinely trotted out. Likewise I don't see much change happening at Radio 3 as a result of listeners' complaints, however forcefully and frequently they may be expressed. There's a kind of entrenched institutional imperviousness.

Hasn't apologising gone out of fashion?
