If I'm catching the drift - is the implication here
that UNLESS you are contributing "usefully" to NWPR
you should refrain from criticizing or providing
feedback on NWPR programming decisions?

First of all, if you are a taxpayer, you ARE
contributing (and I assume NWPR management would
consider any contribution "useful").

Secondly, even if you aren't a taxpayer, as a citizen
you have every right to speak your mind concerning any
entity holding an FCC license.  Even though it's
difficult to imagine at times, the airwaves still
belong to us, the American people.
