I hate the term "suggestion" as a substitute for request...I worked at at 
AAA station once where we were required to use that term...thought it 
sounded really pretentious.  When does this show come on?  Is WPTR 
standards the rest of the time, or is the beginning of a switch to a 
pre-British Invasion oldies format?
