Justin in Arizona

Hello, I'm Justin Mann in Phoenix Arizona. I post a lot to World Have Your Say, just do a search, and you'll find that I've definitely have an opinion on something. WHYS is a great program, because it explores the "whys" of the issues that we the listeners want to talk about.
I only wish that the program could last longer, and that we could have more depth to the program. Unfortunately an hour just isn't long enough.
As for me personally, I listen to the ´óÏó´«Ã½ on XM Satellite Radio, the internet and some podcasts that are available for download. I also get my news from National Public Radio(npr) The Christian Science Monitor, and various rss feeds that I subscribe to.
When I'm not playing wannabe journalist. I enjoy baseball, bluegrass music, bbq, traveling, and good conversation.
As I live in a democracy, it is my view that it is everyone's responsibility to engage in the everyday issues that affect their own life, and to consume media with a skeptic's eye. It is also the responsibility of everyone to understand how they are impacted, and impact international events. It is to this end, that I post to World Have Your Say.
The issues that impact me most are the happenings in Washington, Arizona, and technology issues. Being one who is totally blind accessible technology, and the internet, have opened up doors that a blind person would have never dreamed of just ten years ago. The fact that I've mentioned the issue of blindness last is precisely where it fits in to my life, it is nothing more than a footnote to the life of Justin Mann the person...
