cartalk is gone everywhere now, I suppose....

living only in our minds and in the innards of the internet.

they (or we) disappeared from the radio last summer....

I guess that maria inahosa finally got her way.....

I, for one, was really sad..... still am.

Saturday mornings just aren t the same.

Saturday chores aren t as likely to get done.

....of course 10 am - 11am was breaktime anyway...., didn t wan t to miss a call or a joke.

thanks for the smiles , tom and ray .

I just visited the website, it survives but the new format is too annoying for me.

well you wasted another perfectly good 30 seconds reading this post....

maybe the third half of it will be better......

send all complaints, printed neatly on a 20 dollar bill, to ray....

tom doesn t need the money!!!!!

If it wasn't for the annoying CarTalk website, you would never have found the road to Plan B. Years ago, two roads diverged on the internet and you took the one you traveled by and that has made all the difference. Or maybe not. Who knows?

Yes, that website was very important for me. It changed my life, without it I never would have learned the true falsity of infinity, or the true value of squats. I came to appreciate the subtle wisdom of the engineering that went into the creation of a Nash Rambler. Every now and again, my own car valve lifters make that unique clatter that was the inspiration of the brothers and the prompt for more phone calls.

The web and the internet has become a vat of improvement for the culture memory.

Car Talk reruns are still on here, every Saturday morning. Then there are reruns of the reruns on Sunday. Of course the car problems are all on mid '80s to early '90s cars, with low mileage, and usually cured by replacement of the choke pull-off.

and joe, I discovered Cartalk on the web when it was in the old format.

2 yrs ago it was on three NPR stations here.
