Thank you to all who supported RTÉ 2XM and its sister stations - and here's hoping the spirit of creation and service, that represents the best of what public media can be, can find new and different homes within RTÉ radio as it heads for its centenary.

Democracy dies not only in darkness, but in cynicism.
When people lose faith in electoral politics as a vehicle for change, or start preaching purist extremism that indicts coalition building, they opt out.
That makes it so much easier for autocrats to plow right on in.

We study history in school and shake our heads at people in the past who sacrificed humans to gods with funny names.
