Fan Mail From A WZBC Listener

I want to tell you that I think you're one of the bright spots. Your emphasis and enthusiasm for local music is something that is sorely lacking there now. I also want to commend you on what sounds like a pure, un-jaded friendliness you manage to project on the shows you do. I appreciate it when a dj comes on and simply acts and talks normal with no pretense-etc. So I just wanted you to know how much your'e appreciated.... John

Thanks!
