State of the PRX Union is Strong!

PRX Station Newsletter
January 23, 2007

Hi friend of PRX,

No need for a TelePrompter, we can declare the State of the PRX union to be 'awesome.' In fact the Zeitfunk that we submitted to you and Congress tells the whole incredible story. 2006 was a kicking year at prx.org.

February marks two occasions, captured in this poignant Valentine's story from the racially troubled 1950s. Chew on this: oww, my aching teeth! Be glad you don't have to spend time in the psych ward in Cook County Jail. Wow radio.

"My fellow Americans...,"
-- John
