>Shawn & Danielle:
>
>Nikki from Q96 just called and said the PSA has to be EITHER 30 OR 60
>seconds.  They cannot play a 40 second PSA, as it won't fit within
>advertising time slots allowed for syndicated programs.  This means that we
>need to lengthen our PSA to 60 seconds (we can't possibly shorten it to 30).
>
>Here is our current PSA text (40 seconds):
>
>----
>SOUND FX: Airhorn or other loud noise! or three random noises in a row,
>including animal sounds.
>
>VOICE: Got your attention?  This message is for all the girlz & womyn out
>there.   There’s a new group in town – it’s called R.A.G.G., the resource
>and action group for girlz and womyn.  We’re launching ourselves in style on
>Saturday, May 29th., at the Urbana Champaign Independent Media Center , 218
>W. Main in downtown Urbana.  You’re invited to join us all day for workshops
>like hair-braiding, political action, music, sports, and more... In the
>evening, you can enjoy music, refreshments, and the new friends that you
>made
>during the day at our mocktail hour at OJC Technologies.  Wanna know more?
>You can visit our website at r-a-g-g.ucimc.org.
>---
>
>Anyone who has thoughts on what information to include to extend it to sixty
>seconds, e-mail it back to the list.
>
>Shawn -- give me a call this evening (344-1454), and we'll finalize the
