Ron,

I was just coming toward my house a few minutes ago, listening to a
radio program called "The World" of Public Radio International.  I
heard a five minute segment on "Where is Frisian spoken?"   It was
quite fascinating to me.  A linguist named Frankena (if I recall
correctly) was the expert being interviewed.  The told of Frisian
Public Radio that broadcasts among other things a pole vaulting
competition.  I was pleased to hear this special feature.

Onno P. Falkena?

I don't know if we can receive Public Radio International here in the
Pacific Northwest.  I just checked (
www2.pri.org/publicsite/listeners/programlocator.asp), and the answer is
"yes."  The website: www.pri.org/

I wish we could find a way of getting more media people interested in the
things we care about here.

Regards,
Reinhard/Ron
