Comment on Get tough on prostitution laws by Robert Sveinson

Robert Sveinson — Tue, 29 Dec 2009 12:55:15 +0000

I guess that it is the “holy books” again! I have been around some discussions or stories about prostitution, and joined the fun. I am not holier than thou, but I have never had any business with a prostitute, and I don’t know any one who has. I am not saying that I don’t know any one who has had business with a prostitute, I just don’t know IF they have. And there is no way of telling who in any group or crowd has had any business with a prostitute like showing that one has been in the sun too long, because some parts of their bodies are bright red.

No one has ever told me the harm caused by prostitution.
I have heard of prostitutes robbing people, selling drugs, killing people, and that is what the crimes are: robbery, murder, selling drugs! Not the prostitution.
Should we outlaw police forces because some cops steal, sell drugs, and kill people.
Maybe a referendum should be held with the stipulation that NO religeous organizations can do their people scaring tricks, such as claiming that I will go to hell if I deal with a protitute.

From what I think I know about the French and Dutch saner attitudes towards prostitution I believe that the prostitution itself need not be outlawed.

Comment on Dutch clinic for stage fright sufferers by jasmin

Thanks for this programme. It helped me a lot in performing on the stage for a mono-act after 4-5 years. Stage fright always scares. (I once went blank during a performance during my college days..;(…)
Thanks again: I got a thunderous applause after the performance…;)…

I don’t get to listen to your show on a regular basis but try when I can. I just wanted to say hello from BC, Canada and tell you that I enjoy the show very much… it was nice to find out there is a Canadian connection on the show. ;o)

Hello! I’m popping in from Cornelian Bay at the bottom edge of the world. Your show broadcasts here for me at 3.30 - 4 in the morning and I always listen to it as I wake up and sip my morning cup of coffee. You are such a bright and cheerful start to the day for me - thanks for the show, I always enjoy it so much.

(This morning I finally woke up enough by the end of the show to remember the web address …)

Hi Tim,
Thanks for your comment… sorry if we’re missing out on an apparently very obvious musical genre! I’ll be honest, I’m more into words than music at the best of times, so I was blissfully unaware of this gap in our programming. However, I’ve sent your email to our music guy and we’ll see if we can’t get some aggressive electronic music on the show (though I should warn you that it probably won’t happen until August / September / even October as we’re changing things around here a bit).
Thanks for the tip… and keep listening… we’ll do our best for your musical fulfillment!
Ashleigh
