So this is how it works. Every year, North Country Public Radio begins again a new experiment.<\/p>\n
The experiment is based on a fairly radical theory that goes like this: <\/p>\n
There is a community of people interested in conversation, argument, ideas, culture, stories, joy, politics, music…<\/p>\n
And that community isn’t anchored in New York City or LA or Boston. <\/p>\n
It exists right here in this far-flung constellation of villages, farms and small cities.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Every year when we pass the hat to pay for NCPR, we’re really testing that basic concept.<\/p>\n
Is this community something you care about? Do you care enough to keep it alive? <\/p>\n
Is everything we do, including the conversation here on the In Box, worth $1 a week to you? <\/p>\n
Think of it another way. The In Box is a big communal fire that we gather around to talk and swap stories and argue.<\/p>\n
Now we’re asking you to throw a little wood on the fire. A little stick, a big log, it doesn’t matter. But something.<\/p>\n
