On the other hand, there would be some value in different folks getting together to share expertise and technology; but to the listener, it wouldn't necessarily seem like a single station in the traditional sense.

Of course, all of the software I write runs on Linux; that's the beauty of standards, and of cross-platform code. I don't have to run your OS, and you don't have to run mine, and we can use the same applications anyway!

Every program attempts to expand until it can read mail. Those programs which cannot so expand are replaced by ones which can.

If you give a hacker a new toy, the first thing he'll do is take it apart to figure out how it works.
