(and indirectly of fur bikinis themselves)...

In today's NYT (Arts section, E1), Howard Stern (of "Private Parts"
fame), whose radio show moved to Sirius Satellite Radio a year ago
today, has much to say on the glories of working uncensored on
satellite rather than on what he refers to several times as
"terrestrial radio".  The subhead on E7 quotes his remark

'I would never go back
to terrestrial radio.
This is it for me.'
