And terms of the calendar and time we've been here a long time and we want to be here even longer we can do that if you want to call 180-678-7444 or go online p.p.r. Got org And let us know that. We can count on you to be a supporter but you know not just in money but in listening time we need you to listen we need you to comment we need you to be a part of the family of this station this is such a an incredibly different station you talked earlier Jenny about friends that you have across the country that say what I thought I'd used to live there but now I don't but I still listen and you know when we travel when my husband I travel or when we talk to family and friends in California or back east in New York. We have we have people in near Boston and Massachusetts that listen we have people in Manhattan that was and we have people in San Francisco area that listen. And it's something different for them I mean they say we don't have this I wish we had this so this is a very special place this this public radio station and you are very much a part of it by supporting once a year or whenever however equal to do 818-067-8744 extension 4 what's most important about your contribution now is that if you give anything at all it will be matched you will double your money because of double oil transport dory and tennis left in the Oklahoma Panhandle they've been here since the very beginning they're still here there's still this thing they still want you to listen 180-678-7444 is the number to call to just be welcomed and join this family you know being an advocate for the station like this people like the leps that are putting up their money to encourage you to make that phone call there's something about you know listening versus participating it's very passive to be able to listen to know that you can tune in and count on h.p.r. Being there but we're in a situation now in Public Radio and Public Broadcasting that we can't take it for granted it's always been a little bit on the edge we really all have to be part of the stations that we listen to and you mentioned people living in larger cities the radio stations even the public in the community stations there are very very very different than ours because they've got they've got an influx of cash they've got an endowment they've got this we are our own endowment here on the high plains this is it but this is why it's so down home it's so down to earth it's run by people who care to put their time and energy forward and to me that's extremely ends.
