	Same here in Vancouver region.
	The hosts and newsreaders came on air and 
	then they went to the Lockout repeats such
	as Richardsons Roundup at noon.

	Full noon show tomorrow they promise.
	
	But I expect our morning show will be back
	Wednesday if they can.

	It takes time to get the old steam engines running
	again, and clearing the email, voicemail backlogs
	and finding who did come back and didn't leave 
	for another job.

	And there is the hunt in the corridors for the 
	bodies of managment who stayed inside during the 
	lockout.
	(Dessicated manager corpses--an energy source when burnt)
	
	They haven't got the pronunciation corps ready and 
	still mispronounce putative German Chancellor Merkel's
	name wrong.   (It's a hard G,  An guh la )
	In B.C., the Telus strike is not over and this will
	cause complications on restoring any lines or cell phone
	cut by that company.

	I'm wondering if any host on Radio 2 will be mean 
	enough to play an hour filled with several versions of 
	Peer Gynt, Satie's 3 Gymnopedies, 1812 Overture and 
	other classsical chestnuts that managers thought that
	audience deserved.
