  Online NewsHour: Bob Wright -- June 2002
BOB WRIGHT: Well, first of all, these rules go back into [broadcasting's history] – they started in 1941 with radio and then they were largely incorporated with some more detail in 1953 to television, so we're talking about some pretty old-time rules here.

BOB WRIGHT: Well, I think that when you have 90 channels, even though only one company owns control of all that, which is the legal monopoly that cable is, you're always going to be concerned about it, but I think there are places, ways to raise that issue.

 Last year Scott Nelson had Bob Wright port the heads on his 95CI Twin
When Bob was finished he encouraged him to take it to us (Manley Cycle) to have it properly jetted and the ignition timing adjusted for performance.
When Bob ported the heads he suggested that Scott put Mike Roland's Andrew's TW11G cams in it, but Scott had been told that the SE 203 cams were the 'way-to-go' and (I think) he didn't want to spend any more on hardware.
I have to hand it to Scott though, he finally had Bob install the cams and brought it back for us to jet and set up the new Screamin' Eagle adjustable ignition.
