- OK, I'll rebuke the idea. First of all, NPR stands for "National Public
- Radio." It is not a "liberal news show." It is a radio production and
- distribution organization. Do you really want us to assume that your idea
- of a "liberal news show" includes "Car Talk"?

- A small grammatical flame. The characters .". I assume to be punctuation
- marks rather than UNIX C shell metacharacters. If so, please be advised that
- periods never appear outside of double quotation marks.
