“Was so sad to hear the last DiscDrive. Jurgen Gothe was perfect, and presented a wonderful show. I will really miss Tom Allen’s morning show as well. I had already cut down on my Radio 2 listening,…” [read]

I was blissfully unaware of all the changes, until now.
Huge crushing blow!
The previous programs soothed my mind, soul, and spirit through may difficult days.

Ahh, you’re changing the terms of our deal! ;-)
You commented that you predicted the streams would be shut down in less than six months.
If you’ve got $500 to wager on THAT forecast, you’re on. ;-)
But now that I’m calling…” [read]

Just plain excellent. For a nerd.
Great, what would be really fabulous is to have tips on a one page pdf that could be printed out and pasted to our workstations!

I’ll see if I can start using a zoom function on those small areas for future episodes.
