That is one of the "objective complaints" that I had with Pacifica's
operation when I first encountered it.  Having spent a couple of years
with WNYC's precision timing and delivery, the equal of that of all
the stations in NYC, the looseness of their "standards" appalled me.
This is the same complaint that I still have with so much of the
"modern" programs produced and/or  broadcast by NPR stations, today's
WNYC included.
