This morning, I participated in a discussion of the Final Exit Network arrests/investigations on the Bax & O’Brien show on Rock 102, broadcasting from Springfield, MA. I always approach live morning shows with a certain degree of apprehension, especially when dealing with two hosts. In the worst of cases, it can be a real experience of having been thoroughly piled-on by two pros at talking fast and holding the microphone.
This morning’s experience was a pleasant break from that tradition. It’s not that we agreed on everything, but both hosts were thoughtful and let me reply fully when challenged. I think the end result was a discussion worth listening to.
The link below is to an archived mp3 file of the broadcast. Within the next few days, I will post a transcript of the discussion, which lasts about ten minutes. Someone has volunteer to transcribe the show for me — and long-time readers know such a transcript might never happen at all if it was up to me to do the typing.

So, please have a listen and see what you think. Personally, I think that Bax & O’Brien did a better job on this than the coverage I’ve listened to on NPR. Not just because they had me on the show, but they asked much better questions. –Stephen Drake
Steven Drake raised a number of very important
topics related to the disabled and the proponents
of assisted suicide.
NDY protested at Hospice Woodside, as
Terri Schindler Schiavo was being murdered.
This discussion illustrates beautifully
what sinking sand the Final Exit Network
is operating in, when the believe they can
violate God’s enduring command, “Thou shall
not murder.”
