I take it that the mention of WFMT in this article is in response
to my laments about Chicago's loquacious radio fare.  As a matter of
fact, WFMT and its only classical competitor, WNIB, are the only radio
stations in Chicago I can stand to listen to.  This is in spite of the
fact that I like other kinds of music, including rock.  Unfortunately,
both of these stations still have an excess of gab, albeit high-brow gab.
It still isn't music.  

For example, WFMT plays an hour-long (or maybe it's a half hour) news
program nightly at 10:00, which is just about when I'm settled down and
ready for a little nachtmusik.  As for WNIB, they have some stupid radio
college classes on from 10:00 to 12:00, so I can't win.  Since I have
college classes piled on top of work, I have little time to listen to
the radio, except when they're yak-yak-yakking away.  Oh, I could tape
an hour or so of radio and listen to it later, but it isn't the same.

Will move this to net.flame on request.
