     Talk to Me of Mendocino is one of my favorite songs ever. Every one 
of the dozens of versions of it that different singers recorded always 
makes me cry. Here's Kate and Anna McGarrigle singing it to an empty 
room after their friend Lena died in 1990:

     In other news, I'll be doing my radio show by live remote from 
Juanita's house tomorrow night (Friday, March 3), not in the performance 
space in Fort Bragg. So if you were planning to come by and perform or 
talk about your project or show and tell, or whatever, please make it 
next week (March 10). You don't have to call first or anything. Just 
come to 325 N. Franklin, next door to the Tip Top bar, any time after 
9pm (on a night when I'm there- March 10, for example), walk in, head 
for the lighted room at the back and get my attention. I'll put you 
right on the air.*  If you've written something and you'll trust me to 
read it properly, email it to me and I'll read it on the very next show. 
(I don't use email while I'm doing the show, so the deadline's usually 
around 5 or 6pm Friday night.)


     And if you're tired of depending on other people to switch you on 
and off and twiddle knobs for you, you can have your own regular airtime 
to do a radio show of your own devising. Email Bob Young ( 
bobb at poetworld.net ) and tell him you want to do radio. He'll meet you 
at the broadcast booth, show you how to use the equipment, and put you 
on the schedule. It's easy and fun.


*Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio, 9pm-4am on 107.7fm KNYO-LP Fort 
Bragg, including midnight to 3am 105.1fm on KMEC-LP Ukiah. If you're out 
of radio range, you can listen via http://knyo.org (and choose Listen 
Live) or TuneIn.com (and search for KNYO-LP). And if you're not a night 
person, wait a day, go to http://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com and get the 
recording. Or just go there and read; it's a compendium of virtually 
endless educational infotainment.
