Quite true!  The big story of the day, the one with lasting 
consequences, is that a major terrorist leader was captured 
yesterday.  That one got swept under the rug when the lights went out 
in New Yuck.

Speaking of radio, the best coverage I heard from NY was on WOR, 
where Dr. Joy Brown took off her psychologist hat and became a 
reporter/anchor.  And a very good and intelligent one at that!  I 
heard her on the way home from work last night, I left around 11:30. 
She and a co-anchor were substituting for Lionel.
