Well said John! Peter is indeed sadly missed.

He really listened to what his subjects were saying and always turned the encounter into a conversation, rather than just an interview. He was uniquely able to both go where the subject wanted to take him as well as elicit the things he wanted to know simultaneously. Of course, part of the credit for that has to go to the format of his program which gave ample time for a conversation to develop. No three minute sound bites there. I used to record Morningside at home when it was carried by CBC North shortwave service. When that ended, I rigged an antenna system so I could hear CBL 740 Toronto during the day well enough to record. (I live about 340 air miles from Toronto... for some reason 940 Montreal some 200 miles away never made it here all that well except at night.) To say I was a fan would be an understatement. To say that Peter is missed would be a gross understatement. John Figliozzi Halfmoon, NY On Nov 25, 2005, at 9:41 AM, Sandy Finlayson wrote: > Richard: > > Many thanks for pointing this out.
