Oh, you support it all right - your taxes fund NPR through the CPB, and
most not-for-profit stations are run by public colleges.  :)  No need
for guilt!

I wish my spouse was more into radio (and music in general) - in the
evenings at our house, it's usually TV.  A guy in my office got an iPod

but I think it died this w.  :(  I guess at some point I need to
cough up the money for the real thing.
