Fred Dente, a supporter of Kauai KKCR radio operations commented:
"It's amazing to me that, even with all the conflict and growing pains of Pacifica Radios's history, KPFA continues to produce some of the best news and commentary in the world. This is truly great non-commercial community media programming. KPFA inspired us to start KKCR on Kaua`i in the early 90's, and we generally went along in your footsteps--some great programming, and a sometimes contentious consensus. throw in a polynesian/hippie management style and, yes, we are still on the air."- Peace and Love to the KPFA Ohana.
