White person confession.

Our local NPR station just switched over from AM to FM, and I have made a disturbing discovery:  you know Steve Inskeep on Morning Edition?  He sounds way more attractive on AM.  They switched over and suddenly the full, rich, friendly voice that breaks the new day's bad news to me sounded thin and tinny.  They were simulcasting on AM and FM for a few days, so I was able to switch back and forth to make sure I was hearing him properly.   Sure enough, the Steve I knew and loved was gone.  Stupid switchover.  Stop messing with my reality.

Update:  I am pleased to report that NPR still broadcasts on its old AM station.  Sometimes I switch back during Steve's bits.
