Yeah, Lou, I really hear you on this. ... However, it does the heart and
soul good to at least remember the good times and catch up on where all the

is it just experimental, or some other effort to bring back the older sounds
of radio, and why is it happening?
Maybe it's the Sociology professor in me coming out a little. (grin)
