Bethany, at around 7:02, I'm pretty sure you announced this is the 2002 fundraising marathon. So, I guess I've fallen through a hole in the space-time radio continuum. :/ | |

Is she going to get to the polar bears at some point? Right now it's just eskimo-bashing. | |

(Ike, that was actually around 8:02, so you really did fall through something.) | |

A terrific old 60 Minutes piece on Finland and the tango is at youtu.be/qhxZoV3t61c . | |

Ike:
You're right, 12539! Did this wormhole take me to Des Moines? | |

G in Brooklyn:
Holy crap, I was born in Fenton. It has under 10,000 people in it. | |
|
Mon. 2/20/12 8:23pm
Danne D:
Under 9,999 since you're in Brooklyn, G | |
|
Mon. 2/20/12 8:24pm
G in Brooklyn:
Current population, Danne. I moved from Fenton to England in 1971 when the Fenton population was maybe 4-5K. | |

@Jim: at one point, "Tango Finlandia" was the most repeated "60 Minutes" segment of all time. Don't know if the record still stands... | |
|
Mon. 2/20/12 8:26pm
G in Brooklyn:
Mitten John is from Fenton. Wtf! Mitten meaning Michigan. Do you have email contact info or whatnot? If you're interested... | |

B sounds semi-deranged this evening, perfect for marathon | |

.05 x 2million = $100,000 :) | |

Caryn, Morley Safer also did a story on tourism in Yalta that was the funniest piece I've ever seen on 60 Minutes. I wish it were on YouTube, but I've never been able to find it. | |

Danne D:
Okay so this show is A440. In honor of the letter A, if Bethany gets $1 for every artist beginning with "A" in the Artist/Band Browser in the archives that would be $1020 :) | |

Danne D:
OOPS - CORRECTION! it'd be 10 cents per "A" artist to get to $1020. | |
|
Mon. 2/20/12 8:46pm
Danne D:
Most stations out there don't play 10,200 different songs. At FMU, that's just the artists and that's just the Letter "A"! | |

Caryn:
We're still a very tango-loving country, Bethany. | |
|

G:
"The tango is a pantomime coitus for the camera," as the founder of Futurism Marinetti wrote a century ago... | |

one of the very best Waits songs! | |
