Re: [IRCA] What to do?

["Ira Elbert New, III" <ien3@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Y'know...back when I was a kid in the mid seventies, I had this little table 
top radio and I kept a White's Radio Log right next to it. I have no idea 
where the thing is now (or the radio for that matter), but I underlined 
every station I heard and that thing must have had hundreds of station 
underlined in it. I even heard an FM station from Enid, OK down in Valdosta, 
GA on that radio. Ah...to go back to those days when you could still hear 
stuff.

I'll snap out of this dry spell soon...I hope.
