Ah okay then.  I wasn't asking in order to toot my own horn; alas, 
while I was working there, John (for a variety of reasons) would 
regularly take credit for what Denny Sanders or myself or others 
did.  There's no sour grapes on my end-- he and I have long since 
buried the hatchet, and I hope he did give credit to Denny for what 
he did at the station, as well as what I did.  It was a strange era, 
and being the only person at the station who didn't do any drugs made 
me a bit of an outsider.  Discovering Rush gave me a level of 
acceptance I hadn't had previously, since it helped the station get 
some positive publicity in the media-- the station did get the 
careers of a number of rock groups started, and helped others to 
become locally famous.  Here's an essay I wrote in 2002 about one of 
those groups, the Sensational Alex Harvey Band.
