I meant to actually respond on that point, but I got pulled into a meeting. I actually prefer your fast-talking, Sheila. I've always thought FM radio was lame because all the DJs sounded like they were on Prozac or something (now I realize it was most likely pot). They all had these deep, dead-air filled voices. Just always struck me as really pretentious and lame. Part of the reason I like your show is it's not that.
