[Kzyxtalk] The Cider House rules.

Subject: The Cider House rules.

Here's the recording of last night's (2022-06-24) Memo of the Air: Good 
Night Radio show on 107.7fm KNYO-LP Fort Bragg (CA):

Thanks to Hank Sims for all kinds of tech help over the years, as well 
as for his fine news site: https://LostCoastOutpost.com

And thanks go to the Anderson Valley Advertiser, which provided well 
over an hour of the above 8-hour show's most locally relevant material, 
as usual, without asking for anything in return. Just $25 a year for 
full access to all articles and features. While you're feeling generous, 
go to KNYO.org, click on the big red heart and give what you can. And 
email me your writing and I'll read it on the very next Memo of the Air.

Also, it's getting time to be all anticipatory about attending the 
/massive/ KNYO Fourth of July outdoor musical party at Caspar Community 
Center, just like last year, but it's on Monday this time, which is special.

BESIDES ALL THAT, at https://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com you'll find a 
fresh batch of dozens of links to not necessarily radio-useful but 
nonetheless worthwhile items I set aside for you while gathering the 
show together. Such as:

A pyrex-shell jet engine in slow motion.

The J.C. Penney's hippies. There were way more J.C. Penney hippies than 
tie-dyed burlap poncho hippies. History glosses over this fact.

A time-traveler from the present could fit right in and really like it 
there. There was the war in Vietnam, of course, but there's always a 
war, and the looming threat of atomic destruction, but here that is 
again; it never went away. There was a great deal of tetraethyl lead in 
the air, impairing everyone, but besides that, you could buy a pretty 
nice house for the same as just a months' rent in any of those houses 
now. And look how clean everything is. Smooth roads. Sidewalks and walls 
free of schizophrenic spray paint and drug needles and human shit and 
blood and mountains of trashbags. On the other hand, you couldn't get a 
safe abortion unless your dad was rich, even if pregnancy resulted from 
rape or incest (or both) or ignorance of the birds and the bees, and 
even if you were only twelve and it was your first time, like Holy Mary, 
Mother of God. Oh, wait, they just put all that back and nailed it down 
wrong again. Never mind.
