I did this so not to hi-jack the am radio post. So, in Pittsburgh is KDKA 1020 am. The first radio station to broadcast over the air way back before my time! They say that they push out 50k watts and through the night, with the right weather conditions, they can be heard in 37 states. So lets to a challenge, and let me know if you can find it, hear it, and count them up!! Thanks, Dave

Here's some help on spelling. LOL The European Commission has just announced an agreement where-by the official language of the European Union (EU) will now be English, rather than German which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, Her Majesty's Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a five-year phase in plan that will be known as "EuroEnglish." In the first year, "S" will replace the soft "C." Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants skip with joy. The hard "C" will be dropped in favor of the "K." This should klear up konfusion and keyboards kan have one less letter. In the sekond year, there will be growing publik enthusiasm when the troublesome "PH" will be replaced with the "F." This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter. In the third year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. Government will enkorage the removal of double letters, which have always been a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horible mes of the silent "E" in the languag is disgrasful, and they should go away. By the 4th yar, peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "TH" with "Z" and "W" with "V." During ze fifz yar, ze unesesary "O" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "OU" and similar changs vud of kurs be aplid to ozer kombinations of leters. After zis fifz yar, ve vil hav a reli sensibl riten styl. Zer vil be no mor trubts or difikultis and evrivun wil find it ezi tu understand ech ozer. ZE DREM VIL FINALI KUM TRU!!! ------------- 1938 B, 79 Dynamark 11/36 6spd, 95 Weed-Eater 16hp, 2010 Bolens 14hp |
