As I was flipping through the FM band a couple days ago ("seek" is a
wonderful thang), I tuned into 99.5.  At the time, all that was on
99.5 was some electronic voice counting down from some very large #.
(40,000 or so.)  I thought little of it other to berate myself for
not finding any decent tapes in my car and went on to my search for
good music.

Then, just yesterday, I was in a car with another friend and he tuned
it into 99.5 and asked me if I knew what was going on with the electronic
voice doing the countdown.  I have *no* idea on this one -- if there's
anyone out there in net.land who has any information, please post or
send email.  My curiosity has just been aroused.
