On a day-long round trip to Lethbridge yesterday, I heard on the NPR channel of my Sirius Satellite Radio (both going and returning) an interesting hour-long interview with Paul Barnett, the business writer (from Bloomberg Businessweek, ironically) whose book "Glock: The Rise of America's Gun" was published last year (a New York Times Best-Seller) and is now being released in paperback.

The NPR (National Public Radio) host was genuinely interested and open-minded and curious and professional ... the CBC should take note.
