Speaking of heavy weather, and I've mentioned this elsewhere, but I can't get over it. On Monday I heard a tornado warning EAS message that stipulated that we could expect hazards such as...tornado.

When I was in college I didn't have a car, and walking everywhere made the town seem bigger because it took longer to get from one place to another.

JakeGould:

The U.S. is not a very walkable country. Even NYC is not really great to walk in when all there its are glass towers with crappy ground floor retail.

My biggest NYC nostalgia is for a walkable city where it was really filled with cool things to do if you just explored a bit.

Someone once asked on Dave Mandl's comment board if people who comment on archives get immediately put in the wackadoo file, and he said no, DJs are notified and they appreciate it. I still feel a bit weird doing it on non-podcast shows.
