OK, I know that I am breaking the rules but in this time - this is what I
can do.

When I was a child I lived in Fremont, Oh.  The largest radio station that
played top 40 music was a station in Windsor Ot. (CKLW).  I think the
station was built by GE but the Canadian government changed there mind and
no station could be owned by anyone outside Canada, so the government took
it over.  It cover at night the area from NYC to Chicago.  Remember listing
to AM radio?  We would listen to that station every day.  They had a segment
called 20-20 news.  At 20 before the hour and 20 after the hour they had
news.  The news director was Bryan MacGregor.  After the US pulled out of
Nam he was upset with all of the decent in the US.  He found a copy of
Gordon Sinclair message on his desk and decided to read it with music in the
background on one of the news segments.  Well, it became popular.  His
message was recorded and played a lot in the Midwest.  I have a 45 of it and
made this MP3.  I do not think that it was ever played outside of the
Midwest area.

I have made this available on my web site.  PLEASE DO NOT SHARE THIS LINK TO
MUCH - MY SERVER IS NOT SET TO HANDLE BIG VOLUME......  This is for the use
of you truck guys OK!
