      ...Paul,at the risk of starting another nine-rounder,I'm afraid
      I'm gonna hafta ask ya to give a more precise definition of "many
      time".I listened to YNMT quite often and really don't remember e-
      ver hearing her.Now I don't listen to Diaspar often but randomly
      so I should get a good distribution of what they play.(I used to
      listen often last year).Any Kate?? Noooooo!!!

         In all fairness Paul,if you listen to these shows heavily
      and have only heard her 2 or 3 times,you should say so.

         And your assessment of WKDU is highly overstated.

                                          Baton down the hatches!
                                           It's startin' agin!,
