I'm a WKRP fan myself.Whistling

In the early 70's I recall that on the upper plains you could get WBAP out of Fort Worth / Dallas after dark.

I'll bookmark this thread in my calendar, to remind me to bump it in 8 years, and ask if anyone remembers how to pronounce "CSX".

I said needed to be.  The original question was asked and as quickly answered.  There is a guy grousing on the MR forum about long, watch-building posts full of trash and treasure when, as he puts it, someone asks the time and might be scared off if they get more than 11:58 in return.  This thread sure has gotten further!

Reminds me of the story about a European complaining that Americans could only speak one language.

The reply was that the American in question said he could speak a good Midwest, a fair New England and New York, Was OK with Texan, but had some trouble with the Deep South...

Or something to that effect...
