Really great show, Jesse!

I was caught off guard - startled, even - by the number of comments
posted by apparent members of Stormfront "White Pride World Wide,"

the site run by the unaptly-surnamed Don Black. (Apparently, the irony
escapes his notice.) NPR's reach seems to exceed some people's grasp.
