   I just saw on the news that Alistair Cooke has died at the age of 95 in
New York City. Cooke recently retired from the BBC after 58 years of hosting
his program "Letter From America", reported to be the world's longest
running speech radio program. Cooke was also the longtime host of
"Masterpiece Theater" on PBS.
