I didn't catch the beginning of the show, but it ended at 2:00 AM, and WPTR went back to 
adult standards at that point.  At the end of the show, the DJ said something along the lines 
of, "Sorry if we didn't get to your suggestions this week, maybe we'll get to them next week." 
 I thought I understood the distinction between "requests" and "suggestions" until I heard 
that.
