Longtime BRIGger and Donizetti-fan Dave Faneuf of WBUR, Boston, recently underwent surgery to remove a brain tumor. 
 (BTW, apparently Dave is now the daytime anchor of the station's news/talk programming. For years he has presided over
 the evening schedule of taped repeats of "On Point", "Fresh Air" and "The Diane Rehm Show". Now his dulcet tones (IMHO, the
 best-sounding male voice-over announcer on the station; Mary Ann Nichols is the primo female equivalent, or is it prima?)
 can be heard when "On Point" and other daytime shows are heard live. Dave SOUNDS just great as
 usual; I hope that for him this is a promotion AND a RAISE peut-etre? There's more on
 Dave's situation and the contretemps between Blue Cross/Blue Shield and Tufts Mediacal Center at:
