for Paul - know that you are in the thoughts and prayers of many, 
especially your fellow radio/broadcast types.  

his name came up on the air early Wednesday on Steve's broadcast as 
having been "spotted in the building," with hopes that he might be 
ready to return.
maybe some extended time to continue the fight while not being on-the-
mend, as has been the case in his previous returns-to-work, will allow 
for a better result, if not the best hoped-for outcome.   and maybe 
he'll be able to share his often-thought provoking ideas through his 
writing.  maybe BZ will let him do an online blog with the occasional 
commentary, a la LaPierre on the loose.
