(Jim, I don't think you're on this email list, but if you want to follow <br>
up, if nothing else, I'm sure Barbara will be happy to do the honors in <br>
fwding any comments to/from you.)<br>

One of my dreams from last night: I was (dunno why) visiting David <br>
Letterman (really dunno why) in his apartment (presumably) in New York <br>
City, taking phone pics of the amazing (although geo incorrect) views from <br>
his full-wall windows... our conversation segued to his mentioning WBAI, a <br>
long-standing non-commercial NYC radio station (which I listened to, a <br>
bunch, back when I was a teen in NJ).<br>
<br>
So I started telling Mr Letterman about the wire recorder (a precursor to <br>
the tape recorder, you can look it up) that I'd borrowed, decades ago, <br>
from Mel Most (I knew Mel's daughter, was visiting, saw it, he let me take <br>
it home to play with), and which, a few years ago, I'd passed on to Jim <br>
Freund, who had been and was still doing a show at WBAI ("Hour of the <br>
Wolf"). Jim recognized the machine as having originally belonged to WBAI, <br>
and that Mr Most had worked there. (Note, everything in this paragraph is <br>
true IRL.)<br>
<br>
I was about to convey Jim's regards, or at least name-drop, to Dave <br>
Letterman, when, dreams being dreams, something shifted to some other <br>
scene, or our dog barked, whatever. Jim, I'm sure Dave woulda said hi <br>
back. And, come to think of it, I have no idea whether you two already <br>
know each other, but I'm thinking odds are good you do.<br>
<br>
This isn't my first media dream, here's a blog post from some years back:<br>
