[Dead-Air]

So, I had three different people jump at the chance to get $75 gift cards to the Beta-lactam Ring Records Online Catalog for a pledge of just $25 to support KPSU and What's This Called?. However, I was rather surprised when one of those three people called during the following show and told me he wanted to give back the Thank You gift, so that I might use it to entice another person to pledge. Apparently having a daytime free-form experimental music program online was reason enough for him to pledge, and he wanted me to put the prize towards somebody who was still sitting on the fence. Coul that be you?? I'm extending the offer for another 24 hours - just send me a private message via this board saying that you want to make a $25 pledge and receive the $75 gift card, and it's yours. That simple. (First come, only served, of course...)

Now on to other important matters.
