No show this Wednesday



I'll be off the air this coming Wednesday, May 12th, 2010. I'll be back on the air two weeks from Wednesday (May 19th). Meanwhile, I've uploaded a stand-alone version of the space mix I aired last week to commemorate the May 4th, 1970 shootings at Kent State University and to memorialize the victims. As I've said on my podcast page, never say that it can't happen here.
