[Imc-newsroom] words from Chicago

[Zachary C.Miller]

Here is a note I just got from Steve of Chicago IMC who I met on IRC
today. His email address is spkonieczka at juno.com.

Who wants to go visit chicago and teach them about our radio show
production?

This kind of note really makes you appreciate how awesome it is that
we get 8-12 hours (depending on how you count) per month on
WEFT. These folks have to struggle for 1.5 hours a month!
