Show Description
[ Courtesy: Max Schmid - 03-05-2025 ] Sez he was in Paramus "today" on this show, likely to be aired tomorrow. Early Xmas presents? Nov? Earlier?? 71-XX-XX (55 Sat KPFK synd) no cmmls "Michigan Sand Dune Disaster" Hello test... First line: hello hello yeah it's working. Happy Sat to you! (strange kazoo music with laughing chipmunks) Shep sez it's Hammond Hight Fight Song! Sat Salute - scariest experience of the week: Edward Stainer in England lifts floorboards to find draft (static in here) Finds hole 1000 feet deep! 200-yr-old mine shaft! (bad tuning here) (noise ends around 7 1/2" in) Fear of flying, but he grew up where earth attacks people. Endless prairies of Wyoming, eastern Indiana like that. Can you name all the Great Lakes? Michigan is a deep lake. It has nasty waves. Has sandy bottom. 75 meter band work all the local guys-meets Roy Cactus grows at Lake M, very painful spines. Tumbleweeds would collect. Milkweeds, moths. Miller, Indiana. Had book signing today in Paramus for Wanda H. 2 more coming up. Bought as EARLY xmas gifts. Hollow earth cult. Religion grows by fear. Rare geological phenomenon - Sand Dunes North Woods - Indian country. Wild rice grows there. The dunes are moving, destroying landscape. Roy's house destroyed. He goes with Flick to see the house. They climb the dune. See pieces of the house scattered. Sand will preserve it forever. (over gesang) Jersey Barrens-J Devil. Underground fire in peat bed. It burned for years! Who knows what evil lurks!!
