Suggested by Frank, who listens to WVTF in Roanoke, Va.:

"I have had many, but the one that made me come to your site this morning was "cannery row" legend Ed Ricketts. It was a great story and the pictures on the site made it much more meaningful.

I work nights, and I am to be at work at five minutes to 6 o'clock in the evening -- most nights I just make it. I am there in plenty of time, but I just can't get out of the car... I always want to hear the end of the item being broadcast. I must admit most of the time I miss a little bit for fear of being late."
