Thanks for the good words, Mike.
I don't have any FINANCIAL interest in EASY99.1 (darn it!)!
I do have a heartfelt interest in its success, however.
It renews my faith in independent ownership succeeding with good, decent
programming (where you can leave your kids in the room and not worry what
will be played or said next) in this "polyopoly" (have I coined a new
word?) industry!
I am sure Jason and the rest of the staff had a good laugh at your email.

Takin' it...EASY99.1!
Any use of this moniker as impersonating an EASY99.1 staff member, either
expressed or implied, is purely a figment of your (and my) imagination! Let
Independents Rule!
