Well, I still keep in touch, and a good friend of mine worked in the promotions department for WHFS. She organized all of the small concerts sponsored by whfs throughout the year, and I gave her a call. Seems that a LOT of staff got the ax, not just on air talent. ANd I agree, with electronic devices being as they are nowadays, and radio so commercial filled, radio functions for one purpose alone, to listen to in the car when you have nothing else to listen to, and nothing better to occupy the time.
