hey all, so DN! is going to tout your station birth as a headline or more on monday after the barnraising.  that is
if someone can send them audio of the station going live for the first time.  this audio should be clean and happy
and nice most likely, someone plugging a minidisk into the board will work ok if that sound can then be put up on a
server somewhere as a .wav or whatever.  i doubt they'll need more than a minute or two.

who can take on getting this audio for DN! and emailing the link to danielle maybe?

yay you guys you are national news.
