One Response to “About”

  1. Scott: I’m flattered that my website is included in your blogroll. “Brain Surgery” is one cool website. My company site is being completed revamped with tons of new features/graphics – hopefully by Thanksgiving.

    Are you still doing your weekly programming conference calls? “Amp Up Your Morning Show” is one hot topic at Conclave & NAB. Let me know if there’s interest.

    The Very Best, John Lund
