Slate Article About NPR Listeners

I love this article about how NPR listeners can be such snobby grumps.  When I first read the title (I hate, hate, hate NPR listeners) I was taken aback, but the author actually makes a very good point about the fuddy-duddy elitism that exists in their (our) ranks.  If NPR is to survive the recent upheaval and the graying of its primary audience (boomers) it must appeal to a broader range of people, and that can't just be a bunch of pseudo-cogno-intellectuals.
