Subject: RE: BS: Frequently asked questions
Oh...by the way. One of my pet-est peeves is about radio talk shows where they allow listeners to call in questions and remarks. I'll swear ¾ of callers seem to feel it is bad form to begin without asking "Howyadoin'?" first!!!

"Go ahead, Sam in Tulsa, you're on the air."

"Ok, howyadoin', Mike?"

I am WAITING for Mike to say, "The same as I was doing 5 minutes ago when Joe in Buffalo asked me...and 10 minutes ago when Bob in Oshkosh asked me...just FINE!"
