How so? It's on topic. If this is the one I'm thinking of, it is a recording
of a BBC radio spot on the role of amateur radio operations during the World
Trade Center emergency.

As there is not a rec.radio.news.articles.about.radio and radio is of
interest to most people here (apparently, not to you. What do you use your
antennas for, decoration?) it fits here a damn site better than on
alt.candlemaking. Thanks for your response. I had a spot in my bozo bin that
needed filling. You'll fit nicely.

Can't something be done about the erroneous date format?

In the English-speaking world, it should read, "11/9/2001"

We who speak the most English make the rules.

It has always been "month-day-year" in the United States of America.

Eh? When was the last time Tony Blair talked about the events of
"11-9"?

Oh yes - we forgot that there are more American English speakers in
the world than English speakers.

Not!

In fact, there are few countries, and Britain is definitely not one of them,
that teach or speak proper English. It is a language butchered in
pronounciation by all that England influenced, and was only corrected in
teaching and pronounciation in America. We speak English, not an adaptation
of it. If your understanding of this fact is lacking, there are many places
for you to correct your deficiency, but it will not be here.

I beg to differ!

I don't think the word "Hi" is English yet it's the ubiquitous
greeting in the US (and unfortunately over here in the UK also).
Why do Americans write "meter" for "metre", " thru" for "through",
"dove" for "dived" , "I've gotten" for " I've got", etc, etc?
Somehow I don't think the Pilgrim Fathers brought all that over from
the Old Country!

Americans speak American and we speak English ... 'nuff said!

I recommend Bill Bryson's book "Made in America"- a very readable account of
how American English has developed, with bits of the development of English
English thrown in.

Even in England, English usuage isn't universal. At least, after nearly 28
years in "the south", I still speak proper English ;-)
