[grc] February 13, 2016 - World Radio Day (WRD)

[Maria Gilardin]

Hi Sophie and Frieda,
Sorry for answering so late. I will produce a 29 minute piece about an 
earthquake response (the famous 2014, 3:20 am Napa quake)  by KWMR and 
their special set-up for emergencies.

I also sent your message to the PD of KWMR but have not heard back from 
her yet.
Will post it no later than February 2 as one of my regular programs.
