[grc] Radio Garden - Map of world with clickable streams for radio stations

[Jim Giddings]

I submitted WUML's information to them last month, but got no response. 
In the Boston/Lowell area there are a number of commercial stations but 
no community stations listed. The only station they have listed for 
Lowell is nonexistent (our of business). If you get a personal response 
from them, please let the rest of them know what their real policy for 
listing is. Thanks!
