a dios mio

im not a big fan of radio these days but there are some good stations out there and in Chicago we have/had wnua 95.5 a smooth jazz channel (chicagos only one of its kind as far as i know). it was a great staton with very easy listing music and a very popular morning dj. now 95.5 has fliped into a spanish radio station. aperntly it just sold out and changed formats over night.this marked a sad day in chicago radio put also brings up an issue. how close is a city like chicago coming to speaking both english and spanish and i mean having to know both to surive in the city. as of now i have seen at least 4 commericals in spanish outside of the spsnish channel. hmmm alot of ppl would say no spanish will never over take english in america but most ppl dont realize that america has no offical language and it seems to be embracing spanish more and more everyday. during the nba season i knoticed teams like the mavs and the spurs had jerseys that were in spanish. now im not against the growing numbers of latinos in the states but i wanna kno your thoughts on the matter. peace
